This property is on the market for $25,000,000, listed with Compass.

Steen Valetje was built in 1851 to celebrate the wedding of Franklin Hughes DelanoI and Laura Eugenia Astor on land that was gifted from her father, William Backhouse Astor, who owned the neighboring estate of Rokeby.

Over the years, the classic estate became a country retreat for gatherings and important celebrations by the family, and was even frequented by Eleanor Roosevelt who admired the home’s ‘coziness’ and incredible views.

Spanning over 16,000 square feet, the 10 bedroom home features classic interiors which evoke the property’s grand past, featuring 16-foot ceilings, frescoed walls, and no less than 16 fireplaces throughout the residence.

This American estate is not a time capsule of the past: it’s evolved with the times and boasts all of the modern luxuries and home tech following a recent renovation, alongside a design update by Bunny Williams.

On the grounds you’ll find numerous gardens, a swimming pool and pool house, tennis court, and an 8-box stable with indoor and outdoor riding rings—if you choose to not ride the miles of private trails at your doorstep.

The majestic 290 acre estate offers breathtaking views of the Hudson River and Catskills beyond, and in addition to the fully renovated 19th century mansion, the estate comes with two 4-bedroom guest houses, a carriage house with 4 apartments, and a 2-bedroom gate house.

Complete with half a mile of Hudson River frontage and permission to up to 3 docks and mooring, this trophy home is truly one-of-a-kind.
