A
sprawling estate in the Hudson Valley village of Tuxedo Park is on the market for $29.5 million, making it Orange County's most expensive dwelling ever sold. The 151-acre property, known as Renamor, is nearly one-fifth the size of Central Park and boasts a lush landscape that's hard to resist.
Built in 1928, the estate was designed in the fairytale-like French Provincial style and features a 14,000-square-foot main residence with 16 bedrooms. The property also includes three separate residences: a six-bedroom guesthouse, a two-bedroom carriage house, and a boathouse. Guests can enjoy various amenities such as a spa, tennis court, swimming pools, tea house, and even a secluded one-room log cabin.
The estate's owners, the late Olympic fencer Robert Dow and his wife Christina Seix, built a 2,000-kilowatt solar field to power their massive home, making it off-grid. The property also features geothermal energy, ensuring a sustainable living experience.
Renamor is a rare standout in Tuxedo Park's grand homes scene, with its size and luxurious amenities setting it apart from the rest. The gated village, founded in the late 19th century, is known for its exclusive community and private country club, which introduced the English dinner jacket to the US. With Renamor on the market, the village's tony reputation is sure to endure for many more decades.
