Rose Lodge — Historic Hudson Valley Estate on 17.9 Acres

A Storied Gilded Age Legacy Reimagined for Modern Country Living

Steeped in local history and once owned by the distinguished Van Cortlandt family of the Gilded Age, gracious Rose Lodge is an extraordinary historic estate offering a rare combination of architectural character, modern comfort, and exceptional privacy. Set across 17.9 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, the property is not landmarked, providing a unique opportunity to enjoy the character of a historic residence with the flexibility of contemporary living.

The estate unfolds across a spectacular country landscape, with sweeping views over a perfectly positioned in-ground swimming pool, terraced gardens, expansive level croquet lawn, and private lake. Nature paths, mature landscaping, sweeping lawns, and exceptional stonework create an atmosphere of complete tranquility and seclusion—all while remaining less than an hour from New York City via express train.

The Main Residence

A gracious checkerboard marble foyer introduces the main residence, where beautifully restored period details blend seamlessly with modern amenities.

Elegant formal rooms flow naturally into a welcoming family room and sophisticated bar, all overlooking the grounds through expansive walls of windows. The beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen is complemented by a convenient butler’s pantry, creating an exceptional environment for both everyday family life and large-scale entertaining.

The upper levels provide an abundance of accommodation and flexibility. The spacious primary suite enjoys elevated views across the private lake, accompanied by three additional bedrooms and multiple bathrooms.

A generous home office provides a dedicated workspace, while a private home theater offers the perfect setting for movie nights and relaxed entertainment.

The uppermost floor adds two more expansive bedrooms—or the flexibility to create creative studios, offices, fitness space, or other personalized living areas.

Exceptional Guest & Lifestyle Spaces

Beyond the main residence, the estate offers an extraordinary collection of additional structures and accommodations.

A five-car garage connects to the stables complex through an elegant breezeway. Above the stable wing is a completely remodeled one-bedroom apartment, offering excellent flexibility for guests, extended family, staff, or potential rental income.

A charming detached two-bedroom stone cottage provides another private retreat, making the property particularly well suited to multigenerational living, visiting guests, or additional income opportunities.

A Private Country Retreat

The grounds are the true soul of Rose Lodge.

From the tranquil private lake and terraced gardens to the expansive croquet lawn and inviting pool, every element has been thoughtfully positioned to create a sophisticated yet relaxed country lifestyle.

Meandering nature paths, mature trees, manicured lawns, and distinctive stonework provide endless opportunities for outdoor recreation, entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the extraordinary peace and privacy of the property.

Located in the charming riverfront community of Ossining, Rose Lodge offers an exceptional Hudson Valley lifestyle with scenic Hudson River views, a vibrant downtown, abundant parks, trails, and convenient transportation into Manhattan.

Rarely does an estate of this scale, history, privacy, and versatility become available so close to New York City. Rose Lodge is a remarkable opportunity to own a piece of Hudson Valley history—thoughtfully preserved, beautifully modernized, and ready to begin its next chapter.
