Skene Manor, Victorian mansion in Whitehall, New York.
The three-story grey sandstone manor features a mansard roof with two towers, three flat-roofed porches, and seven original fireplaces throughout the structure.
Built in 1874 by architect Almon Chandler Hopson, the manor was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 as the Judge Joseph Potter House.
The main foyer displays a three-foot wall mural depicting a medieval hunt scene, complemented by stained glass windows and ornate ceiling moldings.
Located at 8 Potter Terrace, the manor opens for guided tours, allowing visitors to explore its 6 acres of grounds and three floors of Victorian architecture.
The property contains decorative wrought iron roof ridges, six dormers with pediments, and a grand staircase crafted from mahogany, walnut, oak, and birch woods.
