Description:

A Historic Gem Overlooking Glenmere Lake

Built in 1911, Glenmere Mansion stands as a masterpiece of Italianate architecture. Industrialist Robert Goelet commissioned Carrère and Hastings to design a grand Tuscan-style villa, drawing inspiration from his European travels. Set atop a hill with breathtaking views of Glenmere Lake, this estate once spanned thousands of acres. To enhance its beauty, America’s first female landscape architect, Beatrix Farrand, designed the estate’s stunning gardens, many of which still enchant visitors today.

Luxury Restored: A Mansion Reimagined

Originally a 35-room retreat, Glenmere Mansion has been meticulously restored, blending historic grandeur with modern luxury. Guests step into a world of marble-columned porticoes, sweeping staircases, and sunlit terraces, all centered around a beautifully refurbished cortile. While the mansion preserves its original architectural elegance, it now offers world-class accommodations, fine dining, and serene surroundings that invite guests to unwind in ultimate comfort.

The Gardens: A Scenic Sanctuary

Spanning 150 acres, Glenmere’s gardens remain a tribute to classic Italian landscaping. With terraced vistas, fountains, and a chic pool pavilion, the estate provides a peaceful retreat. Beatrix Farrand’s original lower gardens are undergoing a significant restoration, ensuring her timeless vision continues to flourish.
