Brooke Astor's Cobble House - Tyringham, Massachusetts
Where Land, Light, and Legacy Converge.
This remarkable 27. 9-acre estate blends historic pedigree with extensive modern upgrades and a rare Special Use Permit allowing 45 guests per day and up to 99 guests one day per week.
Previously operated as a cherished wedding and event venue, the property offers exceptional potential for boutique hospitality, upscale dining, or private event use.
Historic & Architectural Significance
Cobble House represents 5, 885 square feet of American Country House perfection, designed in 1909 by Harrie T. Lindeberg, often called ''the American Lutyens'' for his mastery of estates that harmonized architecture and landscape.
READ MORE OF THE STORY BELOW Lindeberg designed fewer than 200 homes during his fifty-year career, with commissions from such families as Vanderbilt, Astor, DuPont, Havemeyer, and Doubleday.
Homes of this scale and craftsmanship from the golden age of American estate design have become extraordinarily rare.
Land & Landscape Enhancements
More than $1 million in landscape restoration and site engineering completed.
15 acres reimagined to frame sweeping views of Tyringham Valley and the Cobble, returning the property to Lindeberg's original vision.
Creation of four distinct outdoor vignettes The Overlook, Terrace Lawn, Courtyard, and Grand Lawn each designed for unique event and guest experiences.
The Overlook: 20 tons of earth moved to establish a breathtaking elevated view.
The Patio: 38 triaxles of fill imported to sculpt terrain and create a 2, 000 sq ft vanishing-edge terrace, anchored by 13 highway divider stones for structural integrity and private event tenting.
The Grand Lawn accommodates Tanglewood-style event parking.
The Terrace Lawn and Courtyard offer elegant spaces for intimate gatherings and event overflow.
Four 100-gallon propane tanks supply the main systems and event support infrastructure.
The iconic portico underwent a nine-month restoration, with each pillar individually hand sanded to preserve original craftsmanship and added custom 16-ft wainscoting boards with 1-inch recessed dimmable lighting, creating an ethereal nighttime glow.
Each vignette is designed as a sanctuary of calmimmersive, scenic beauty.
