Gloriously Overlooking Tuxedo Lake
Just one hour from Manhattan is where you will find this magnificent Gothic Revival Manor built by the famed architects Walker & Gillette in 1922, and now known as The Children's House. Located within the storied, gated community of Tuxedo Park, this stunning residence sits high on a scenic hilltop surrounded by 72 private, lush acres with a perfect position overlooking Tuxedo Lake. The 3 story home has an impeccable floor plan and extraordinary detail throughout including a ceiling height on the main floor of 12 ft, a living room with paneled walls, dentil crown molding and a gorgeous WBF, a formal dining room, also with fireplace and a large kitchen with preparation room. There are several french doors to take you out onto the dining porch or loggia's, which are all framed by large, inspired arches. On the 2nd floor are six spacious bedrooms and the very elegant master suite. Additionally, there are five baths and four fireplaces (all w/marble mantle's). The third floor has 3 multi-room suites as well as a small kitchen and is a perfect set-up for guests, teenagers or live-in staff. It is very rare to find this much acreage this close to Manhattan and the 72 acres are gorgeous. The original formal gardens were designed by the legendary Olmstead Landscape Architects, who most famously designed Central Park. The acreage is protected by conservation easements, though the potential exists for four additional residences to be built, should you desire. Children's House received its name during World War II, when it served as a refuge for 18 children brought over from England to escape the war. It has served as a place of refuge and as a retreat ever since. It is now your turn to call it home. Photographs by James Bleecker.
