Sunnyside, Historic mansion in Tarrytown, United States.
The Dutch Colonial Revival estate features a stone cottage with stepped gables, weathered stone walls, and a Spanish tower overlooking the Hudson River.
Author Washington Irving purchased the property in 1835 for 1,800 dollars and transformed the simple farmhouse into an elaborate residence until his death in 1859.
The estate displays original furnishings and decorative items from Irving's time, including his study where he wrote many of his famous literary works.
Guided tours of Sunnyside run from April through November, with the entrance located at 3 West Sunnyside Lane, one hour north of Manhattan.
The property includes a pond named The Little Mediterranean with a waterfall that Irving designed to recreate elements from his European travels.
