Renamor is a spectacular estate that combines history, grandeur, and modern sustainability in a truly unique way. It is situated on the largest property ever sold in historic Tuxedo Park, 151 acres! The fact that it is now on the market for the first time in over 30 years makes it even more attractive to a discerning buyer seeking a one-of-a-kind property. Built circa 1928 in the romantic French Provincial style, Renamor stands apart from other Gilded Age homes in the region for its timeless charm and rustic elegance popularized in post-WWI American architecture.
With its distinctive hipped roof, classic clay tiles, dormer windows, stone and stucco facade, and period hardware inside and out, it evokes the spirit of Normandy, Provence, and the French countryside—brought to life in the rolling hills of New York’s Hudson Valley. Originally commissioned by George S. and M. Renee Carhart Amory—whose combined names inspired the estate’s Renamor moniker, the property has been meticulously preserved.
Most recently, it was lovingly restored and cared for by the late Robert S. Dow, a prominent asset manager and a committed philanthropist who believed deeply in giving back to the community.
Renamor includes three distinct residences totaling over 22,000 square feet: a 14,000-square-foot main residence, featuring a dramatic great hall, a grand salon, banquet dining room, extraordinary library, former chapel, a “fumoir,” where gentlemen smoked after dinner, a wine cellar, an expansive kitchen, and six bedroom suites; a completely renovated 1930s 3,700-square-foot guest house; and a 4,500-square-foot carriage house with a luxurious private apartment.
In addition to the residences, the property includes a boathouse on Tuxedo Lake, a secluded one-room log cabin with a large stone fireplace, a spa/pool house, tea house, five-car garage, and multiple outdoor entertaining areas. With 16 bedrooms, 20 bathrooms, and 19 fireplaces, the estate is designed for both intimate living and large-scale entertaining, giving Renamor the versatility to be a private retreat and an entertainer’s paradise, ideal for hosting gatherings of all sizes in a setting that feels both grand and comfortable.
The fact that it has outdoor activities on the property, as well as multiple pools, lake access, and golf course at the nearby Tuxedo Club, makes it a true lifestyle property. Renamor is not only a historical treasure, it is also a model of sustainability, renewably powered by solar and geothermal energy, giving it a cutting-edge advantage. An investment of over $1 million was made over a decade ago, allowing the property to operate entirely off-grid, independent of local utilities.
Its integration of zero-emission energy includes a microgrid system and high-efficiency upgrades that ensure modern performance while preserving the property’s historic character. Tuxedo Park itself adds another layer of distinction. As the first planned residential community in America—complete with a centralized sewage system—it carries profound historical relevance. Just 40 miles from Manhattan and close to private airports, the area offers rare access to nature and urban convenience in one place.
Renamor is more than a home—it’s a legacy estate, ready to be passed down to a new generation of stewardship. Whether as a weekend retreat or a full-time residence, this is a landmark property of remarkable depth, vision, and beauty. Find your one. Renamor.
