Overlooking the Hudson River from high on a bluff, Locust Grove Estate is a 200-acre National Historic Landmark estate that includes a historic Italianate-style mansion built in 1951, a beautiful carriage house and miles of carriage roads, landscaped grounds with a flower and vegetable garden, and an ice house. Architect A. J. Davis designed the Italianate villa for artist and inventor Samuel Morse, and the estate features a collection of over 15,000 pieces of furniture, paintings, and decorative arts that can be viewed by the public on guided group tours of the mansion and the surrounding grounds.
The property also includes a museum that showcases antique exhibits, a gallery of beautiful artworks, and a nature reserve with natural and landscaped grounds. The estate offers guided tours, lectures, and other special events, as well as a range of educational programs for all ages. Visitors can also explore five miles of 19th-century carriage roads that wind through the woods.
