The Town of Tuxedo is located in Southern Orange County, NY. In size, it’s approximately 40 square miles of which about 75% of that landmass is forever preserved State Parks; about 55,000 acres in Harriman State Park and about 22,000 acres in Sterling Forest State Park. The geography is minor mountains of the Appalachian Mountain chain which creates tight areas of development – what I call “pocket communities” – in between the mountainous terrain. The tallest of these mountains range between about 700-1,000 ft above sea-level, which allows for homes to be tucked in for privacy in some areas and in other areas to take advantage of high-up, long distance scenic views. Following are some of the community pockets in the Town of Tuxedo, as a short guide to get to know the Town better.
Central Tuxedo, The Hamlet and Tuxedo Park
Village of Tuxedo Park – Part of the National Register of Historic Places
Tuxedo Park (or “The Park”) is well-known as one of the first planned, gated communities in the nation – founded by Pierre Lorillard IV in the 1880’s, this Gilded Age retreat endures as one of the most beautiful places to live in the country. Despite being only 1 hour from NYC, it feels a world away. The Park is notable for many characteristics including its famous residents through the course of time, but also for its historic architecture where the American “shingle style” was burnished by architect Bruce Price. Other renowned architecture firms practiced here in the Gilded Age and thereafter including: McKim, Mead & White, John Russel Pope, William A. Bates, Sturgiss & Barton, Walker & Gillette, Carrere & Hastings, Delano & Aldrich, Richard Howland Hunt, James Brown Lord and William Edmund Lescaze. The homes are known for their unique and classic architecture, but also for their near perfect siting in harmony with the natural, mountainous terrain. Much of the landscape architecture and layout of the roadways, and green commons of the Park were designed and engineered by Ernest Bowditch, a contemporary of Frederick Law Olmstead. At the heart of the community are three beautiful lakes surrounded by emerald mountains and rocky cliffs making Tuxedo Park a truly unique escape. It is not an HOA, it’s a New York State incorporated Village within the Town of Tuxedo, NY.
Community centers include, The Tuxedo Club (Private, paid memberships by invitation only). St. Mary’s Church, Wee Wah Beach Club, Village Boat Club, Wee Wah Fishing Club, the Race Track Nature Preserve, and miles of hiking trails. Proximity to the Hamlet and commuting access is a great benefit.
The historic hamlet of the Town of Tuxedo has mixed use, commercial and residential properties. A series of historic buildings anchor the center of the Hamlet including the Tuxedo Park Library and the Tuxedo Park Post Office (both designed by Bruce Price), the Tuxedo Train Station in beautiful Queen Anne style and George F. Baker High School, with its massive clocktower as a beacon to the community. The Powerhouse public park has a bandstand, pic-nic court, playing fields, basketball court (which doubles as a winter skating rink), dog park, walking/jogging track, playground and the Ramapo river walk/trails. The adjacent East Village neighborhood is celebrated for its quaint close-knit neighborhood feel, early homes and the very active Sons of Italy Lodge which hosts Spaghetti dinners, Venison dinners and community fundraisers and gatherings. There is also a “skate park” near the Ramapo River and adjacent access to Harriman State Park’s hundreds of miles of hiking and recreation trails. The hamlet boasts easy access to commuting facilities with Rt. 17 close by and MTA Metro North service to NYC, Bergen County, Hoboken and Port Jervis. Public parking is available in the Town Train lot for residents and the MTA lot.
Developed approximately from the 1950’s through the 1970’s, the community of Laurel Ridge offers many Mid-century and contemporary inspired architecture homes some designed by TechBuilt and others said to be designed by architect Charles Winter, all offered in a serene wooded setting.

The South End of Town
Surrounded by Sterling Forest State Park, this area of town is celebrated for its quiet, private and rustic feel, yet great proximity to major amenities. The Tuxedo Club golf course is in between Maple Brook and Eagle Valley, adding a bucolic and scenic feel to the area.
Maple Brook & Eagle Valley
The Eagle Valley Mini-Park offers a basketball court, picnic tables and a large playground for young children. Alexander Pond offers fishing and winter ice skating when conditions are safe. St. Elizabeth’s Chapel with historic roots in community back to the Hamilton and Morgan families is an inspiring small stone chapel that is often the heart of community gatherings for worship, celebration and fundraising. The Eagle Valley Firehouse is another cherished community gathering center when the dedicated volunteer firefighting force is not rushing to emergencies.
Newer construction estate style homes dot the hillsides of the historic Hamilton Estate area, many of the homes are of luxury caliber and size, set back from the road and offer privacy and elegance, some with scenic mountain views, golf course views or views over Alexander Pond.
