Lyndhurst Estate was designed by Alexander Jackson Davis, a prominent architect known for his Gothic Revival style, and the mansion is considered one of his masterpieces.
The estate was once owned by Jay Gould, a leading railroad developer and speculator of the 19th century, who used it as a summer home.
Designated in 1966, Lyndhurst is recognized for its architectural significance and its role in American history.
The estate houses an impressive collection of art and decorative objects, including works by renowned artists like Thomas Cole and Asher Durand.
The estate spans 67 acres of park-like landscape, offering beautiful views of the Hudson River and meticulously maintained gardens.
Throughout the year, Lyndhurst hosts various cultural events, including art exhibitions, concerts, and seasonal tours, enriching the local community.
The estate's picturesque setting has made it a popular filming location, appearing in movies such as 'House of Dark Shadows' and 'Reversal of Fortune.'
Before Jay Gould, the estate was owned by New York City mayor William Paulding Jr., who commissioned its original construction in 1838.
