The Thomas Jansen House is located on Jansen Road in the western section of the Town of Shawangunk, in Ulster County, New York, USA. It is a Dutch stone house built first in 1727 by Jansen, an early settler of the area. In 1780 his family built the current house; the original survives as a rear wing, a common practice in the area. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
