Ary-Brynn: A luxury villa in Manhattan's backyard. This enchanting 1890 villa rests in the fabled gated community of Tuxedo Park, just 45 minutes from Manhattan. Originally built for Consuelo, Duchess of Manchester, this landmark restoration sits high above Big Tuxedo Lake, offering uninterrupted panoramic views of the majestic lake and mountain climes, from every window, and its three grand verandas. A rare blend of Gilded Age craftsmanship and modern comfort, the home features a Stanford White-inspired interior with soaring ceilings and a graceful flow that brings natural light into the home from dawn to dusk. The main level offers a grand parlor and foyer, a custom mahogany library with wet bar, an elegant granite kitchen, dining conservatory, powder room, and a sun-drenched Cuban sanctuary with sweeping lake and mountain views. The sweeping staircase leads to a gallery of four spacious bedrooms and an oak-paneled library with cocktail veranda.
