I have viewed the photos of the rock and have determined that it is indeed a meteorite! Congrats to Mr. Beck. Unfortunately, most cases of a meteorite hitting one's house turn out to be a curse with a resulting flood of phone calls by the media and hounding meteorite seekers. Best of luck to Mr. Beck! -LunarMeteoriteHunter, Tokyo, Japan
