Commissioned in 1910 by H. Leroy Emmet, Glen Malcain — "the ever charming glen" — was masterfully designed by renowned architect H. Van Buren Magonigle as an English country estate of exceptional distinction. Situated on nearly 5.5 acres in the coveted Tuxedo Park, this Hudson Valley property offers over 800 feet of private Tuxedo Lake frontage and breathtaking northern views spanning the entire length of the lake to the Ramapo Mountains, all within a 2,300-acre historic walled enclave.
A dramatic arrival unfolds through a monumental Renaissance-inspired gate of hand-forged iron and latches, opening to a sequence of extraordinary interiors. A columned reception hall, Corinthian capitals, and carved friezes set the tone, leading to a richly paneled, turf-colored oak dining room set within a pentagonal bay of tall windows overlooking the water. The grand living room, distinguished by rare Chinoiserie doors by Thomas Chippendale, is complemented by a gracious study and a marble-floored conservatory, bathed in natural light.
Throughout the home, original windows and hardware remain intact, beautifully scaled to invite light while framing the surrounding landscape.
The private quarters offer remarkable scale and flexibility, with five to six generously proportioned bedrooms. The layout effortlessly adapts to a variety of modern living needs, including dedicated home offices, fitness and wellness rooms, media or recreation areas, and private guest suites ideal for extended stays. Thoughtful separation of spaces allows for both intimate daily living and larger-scale entertaining with ease, while accommodating live-in staff quarters if desired.
A magnificent two-story elliptical staircase, crowned with intricately carved millwork, leads to the upper levels, where a striking twelve-sided circular sunroom adjacent to the primary suite continues the home's architectural narrative. Nearly every room is thoughtfully oriented to maximize the stunning lake and mountain vistas.
An expansive terrace stretches across the rear facade, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and offering an exceptional setting for al fresco dining, entertaining, or simply soaking in the lake views. A swimming pool provides a welcome respite during the summer months, adding to the property's outdoor lifestyle.
Enhancing the waterfront experience, a charming stone boathouse sits directly on the water's edge, offering a rare opportunity for restoration as a guest retreat, studio, or lakeside haven. The property's extensive frontage allows for the addition of a private dock, enabling immediate enjoyment of boating, fishing, and Tuxedo Lake living from your own shoreline.
Despite its secluded feel, the property offers exceptional accessibility—just 46 miles from Midtown Manhattan, with train and bus service nearby. Fine dining at the Valley Rock Inn & Mountain Club, everyday conveniences, and extensive hiking trails through Harriman State Park are all within reach.
A rare offering where historic pedigree, architectural significance, and natural beauty converge, Glen Malcain represents a truly timeless lakeside estate in the Hudson Valley.
