The Vanderbilt

Our homes were named for historic, famous estates. Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Hyde Park, New York, the 54-room Vanderbilt Mansion stands as a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the Gilded Age. This majestic estate, once the summer retreat of Frederick William Vanderbilt and his family, boasts a stunning architectural style that seamlessly blends elements of Beaux-Arts design with the lavishness of the era.

The mansion’s façade features towering columns, intricate carvings, and elegant balconies, evoking a sense of timeless beauty and sophistication. Every detail, from the ornate cornices to the elaborate friezes, speaks to the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into its construction.

Stepping inside the Vanderbilt Mansion, you’re transported back in time to an era of unparalleled luxury and refinement. The interior is a masterpiece of Beaux-Arts design, with grandiose staircases, soaring ceilings, and sumptuous furnishings that reflect the family’s wealth and status. Each room is adorned with exquisite artwork, antique furniture, and intricate moldings, creating a sense of warmth and elegance that is truly unmatched.
