Ross-Hand Mansion, Gothic Revival mansion in South Nyack, US.

The Ross-Hand Mansion features three stories of brick construction with ornamental bargeboards and a steeply pitched gable roof on four acres of land.

Built in 1859 by architect Azariah Ross, who designed Central Park bridges, the mansion was later purchased by William Hand, a specialist in decorative woodwork.

The mansion incorporates architectural elements from Andrew Jackson Downing's 'Architecture of Country Houses' publication, representing 19th-century American residential design.

The five-bedroom, five-bathroom estate spans 5,664 square feet and includes multiple marble fireplaces and detailed wood craftsmanship throughout the interior.

William Henry Hand, grandson of the second owner, established a laboratory on the grounds where he developed long-life batteries for emergency services.
