Brook House. A legacy of creativity on South Mountain Road. A masterful restoration and expansion of charming 1880s house and rebuild of large cottage, which is an unrented legal two family. 4,600sf total. Many outbuildings and the West Branch of the Hackensack River scenically flows through the property. Not just a residence, but an important American history chapter. Nestled within the legendary South Mountain Road artist community, this 5.5 acre compound offers total privacy and is a rare combination of 19th-century architecture and 20th-century avant-garde soul. For over a century, Brook House has been a sanctuary for world-renowned creators. It has seen only 4 owners in the last 110 years, serving as a testament to its enduring appeal. Kurt Weill & Lotte Lenya, the celebrated composer and singer lived here for over 30 years. It was within these walls that the sounds of The Three Penny Opera - Mack the Knife and Alabama Song echoed. Rollo Peters, a prior owner, was a prominent American stage actor, director, and best remembered as a co-founder of the Theater Guild. Current owners of Brook House for the last 33 years, seamlessly blended mid-19th-century charm with modern structural integrity. They worked with a NYC based interior designer, Gail Jacobs, who liked the provenance of the property and designed homes of other musical luminaries, including Leonard Bernstein's apartment at the Dakota in NYC. Gail worked through the years collecting the right pieces locally and abroad, to fit perfectly into Brook House. Her curated collection can be purchased separately. Many of the light fixtures are Ann-Morris, New York, and antique holophane style lighting. The home boasts ancient hand-hewn beams and breathtaking old boulders/stones, that make up some of the interior and exterior walls of the home and property. The main house features 4 fireplaces. Mantels include 19th century wooden design and a c. Louis XV style French limestone mantel. The interior boasts tall ceilings in the living room with wide white oak floor boards, tray ceiling, and French doors that lead out to the garden. The layout of the MAIN home includes 7–8 rooms, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The guest house and outbuildings give an estate like feeling the minute one drives through the electronic gate. The property is zoned as a legal two-family, offering versatility for guests, a creative studio, or rental income. It features a fireplace in the living room, full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a walk-out lower-level den. There's also an oversized garage, and additional outbuildings include an old brick potting shed, a large garden shed, chicken coop and artisan well that continually flows. The 5+ acre parcel is a private arboretum of flowering gardens, ancient stone walls, and rolling fields. A highlight of the property is the rebuilt, arch-supported stone bridge spanning the river, which flows directly through the property. The South Mountain Road artist community is surrounded by the legacy of neighbors like playwright Maxwell Anderson, artist/architect/potter, Henry Varnum Poor, sculptor John Mowbray-Clark and painter Arthur B Davies, who financed their properties (on S Mountain Rd) to fund the groundbreaking show at the Armory on Park Avenue in NYC, in 1913. Other influential residents through the years included Burgess Meredith, Adolf Zucker, head of Paramount Studios, John Huston, and many early writers for television shows, Mick Jagger & Jerry Hall, and others! Brook House is surrounded by 8 acres of West Branch Conservation Land Trust, donated by Lotte Lenya, when she owned the property. It borders the 91-acre Davenport Preserve ensuring permanent privacy and a connection to nature. High Tor State Park is minutes away, offering hiking trails and panoramic views of the NYC skyline. Local amenities include a working farm at the west end of the road and the 18-hole Paramount Country Club golf course.

Perched on Hook Mountain West and surrounded by 80 acres of protected parkland and open space, Llama Ridge is among the most private and commanding properties in the Hudson Valley. A short walk from the house, a breathtaking overlook reveals the full sweep of the Hudson River — a view that feels both earned and intimate. This is not simply a home. It is a setting for a life lived with intention: a place to create, to think, or simply to exist within one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the Northeast. THE ARCHITECTURE: Llama Ridge is the newly completed work of Hudson Valley architect Douglas McClure, built by Eric Bosley. McClure’s guiding concept was a modern reinterpretation of the New England connected farmstead — those rambling 19th- and early 20th-century structures where extended families joined barn and home by breezeway as their lives expanded. The result is a home of remarkable presence. Three crisp, contemporary volumes are arranged along the mountain ridge, each articulated with rows of finely detailed farmhouse windows. With its focus on clean lines and expansive views, the composition is striking from every angle, the geometry of the architecture playing against the organic drama of the landscape. THE INTERIOR: With south and west exposures, Llama Ridge is flooded with natural light throughout the day. The great room — an extraordinary 60-foot expanse anchored by custom tray ceilings that quietly organize the space — becomes a theater of shifting light and shadow as the sun moves across the sky, the slender mullions of the farmhouse windows casting ever-changing patterns on the walls and wide plank oak floors. Tall ceilings, a generous floor plan exceeding 6,100 square feet, and meticulously selected finishes combine to create interiors that feel both grand and intimately livable. Every detail reflects the standard of a premier luxury residence, newly completed and built for lasting distinction. A RICH PROVENANCE: The story of this mountain site is as layered and remarkable as the Hudson Valley itself. A modest Cape-style house and an older barn, believed to significantly predate it, occupied the land around the time of World War II. The barn later found new life as an off-the-beaten-path antique shop, drawing curious visitors up the mountain road in search of hidden treasures. In time, four llamas came to live on the mountain, roaming as a close-knit herd for years and drawing local schoolchildren up the road to meet them. Greenhouses on the northern side of the land were filled with orchids that flourished in this magical microclimate. The stone foundation of one greenhouse remains visible today, quiet evidence of the life this land has held — and perhaps a hint at what it might hold again. THE LOCATION: Llama Ridge borders Upper Nyack and sits within easy reach of some of the region’s most celebrated river towns, including Nyack, Piermont, Irvington, and Tarrytown. New York City is genuinely accessible — 45 minutes by car to Midtown, with convenient mass transit options as well. Llama Ridge is a singular property. More than a home, it’s a lifestyle.

With its distinct hip roof, classic clay tiles, dormer windows, stone and stucco facade and period ironwork inside and out, it evokes the spirit of Normandy, Provence and the French countryside brought to life in the rolling hills of New York's Hudson Valley. Originally commissioned by George S. and M. Renee Carhart Amory whose blended names inspired the estate's Renamor name, the property has been meticulously preserved. Most recently, it was lovingly restored and cared for by the late Robert S. Dow, a prominent asset manager and a committed philanthropist who believed deeply in giving back to the community. Renamor includes three distinct residences totaling over 22,000 square feet: a 14,000-sf main residence, featuring a dramatic great hall, grand salon, banquet-sized dining room, extraordinary library, former chapel, a fumoir, where gentlemen smoked after dinner, a wine cellar, an expansive kitchen, and six bedroom suites; a completely renovated 3,700-sf guest house from the 1930s; and 4,500-sf carriage house with a luxurious private apartment.

With 16 bedrooms, 20 bathrooms and 19 fireplaces, the property is designed for both intimate living and large-scale entertainment, giving Renamor the versatility to be both a private retreat and entertainer's paradise ideal for hosting gatherings of all sizes in a setting that feels both grand and comfortable. The fact that it has outdoor activities on the estate as well as multiple pools, lake access and golf course at nearby Tuxedo Club, makes it a true lifestyle property. Renamor is not just a historic treasure, it's also a model of sustainability renewably powered by solar and geothermal energy, giving it a forward-thinking edge. A $1 million+ investment was made over a decade ago, allowing the property to operate entirely off the grid, independent of local utilities. Its net-zero energy integration includes a microgrid system and high-efficiency upgrades that ensure modern performance while preserving the estate's historic character. Tuxedo Park itself adds another layer of distinction. As the first planned residential community in America-complete with a centralized sewer system-it carries deep historical relevance.
