Tuckahoe, Historic mansion in Jensen Beach, United States.

The Tuckahoe mansion stands at 1921 North East Indian River Drive, featuring two dormitory wings and multiple reception areas across 54 acres of riverfront woodland.

Built in 1938 for Willaford and Anne Leach, the property later served as Saint Joseph College of Florida from 1950 until 1972, then as Florida Institute of Technology.

The mansion rests atop Mount Elizabeth Archaeological Site, where Native American communities left pottery, tools, and shell ornaments dating back 4,500 years.

Following extensive renovations completed in 2009, the mansion now includes a catering kitchen, banquet room, terraces, and an amphitheater for public events.

The name Tuckahoe derives from a Native American word meaning welcome, reflecting the property's current role as a gathering space for community events.
