Grasmere, Federal estate in Rhinebeck, United States
Located near the Hudson River, this vast estate features a mansion with architectural elements from both Federal and Victorian periods, surrounded by ancient locust trees.
Janet Livingston Montgomery constructed Grasmere in 1824 after inheriting the land from her grandfather, living there for 27 years before relocating to Barrytown.
Judge Ernest Howard Crosby, who owned the estate in the late 19th century, wrote extensively about social issues and composed poetry addressing colonialism.
The estate contains multiple structures across its grounds, which current owners plan to transform into a 12-room hotel with culinary facilities.
The property received its name from Peter R. Livingston in 1822, choosing it after a village in England's Lake District.
