ABOUT

Locust Grove Estate

The heart of the estate is an Italianate villa designed in 1851 for artist and inventor Samuel Morse by architect A. J. Davis. Beginning in 1895 new owners William and Martha Young redecorated the mansion with their vast collection of art and antiques, and added new gardens. Mr. and Mrs. Young’s daughter, Annette, lived at Locust Grove until 1975, preserving the estate essentially as her parents had used it. Today Locust Grove, with miles of carriage roads, landscaped grounds, historic gardens and Hudson River views, is open to the public as the gift of Annette Innis Young.
