Historic NYC Castle-Style Mansion Lists with Panoramic City Views

The grand estate boasts panoramic views of Tuxedo lakes, Ramapo Mountains and NYC skyline.

T
he Kingsbury-Curtis House, a majestic 9,000-square-foot estate in Tuxedo Park, New York, is on the market for $6.2 million after more than two decades of ownership. Perched atop a hill, this grand home offers breathtaking views of the Tuxedo lakes, Ramapo Mountains, and even a glimpse of the New York City skyline.

    Built in 1910 from fieldstone, brick, and limestone, the estate exudes old-world charm and elegance. With seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and a sprawling layout, it's one of only eight homes for sale in this exclusive gated village of about 700 people.

    The property boasts an impressive entrance hall, expansive living areas with intricate moldings and wrought-iron accents, and multiple fireplaces warming up formal and informal spaces, including a stately library and sun-drenched solarium. The custom-designed kitchen opens onto a scenic outdoor dining porch.

    A unique feature of the estate is its pool, shaped like the nearby Tuxedo Lake, which adds to its charm. The home's design by renowned architect Walter Boughton Chambers, who also created notable landmarks like the Singer Building and Corcoran Gallery of Art, contributes to its prestige.

    The current owners purchased the property in 2004 for $5.25 million and have lovingly maintained it over the years. With only a handful of ownership changes since its construction, this estate is truly a rare find. As Walter Deane, referring agent of Tuxedo Park Fine Homes, notes, "This one is very special because of its unique location and design."
