The Westervelt–Cameron House is located at 26 East Glen Avenue in the village of Ridgewood in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. The house was built around 1767 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 10, 1983, for its significance in architecture and exploration/settlement.[1][3] It was listed as part of the Early Stone Houses of Bergen County Multiple Property Submission (MPS).[4]

According to the nomination form, the house was built by Johannis R. Westervelt. His son, John W. Westervelt, owned it in 1817. Later owners sold it to Alexander and Catharine Cameron, who enlarged it.[3]
