Trip Info
Explore through the 300 year old Sagtikos Manor. View furniture, accessories and architectural styles of periods from the late 1600′s to the mid 1900′s. Tour through the first and second floors and many rooms of the manor, as well as the bedroom where President George Washington slept on his tour through Long Island in 1790. The house has been preserved just as it was left by the last proprietor of the Manor house when he moved his summer residence to East Hampton in 1963. This gorgeous manor was built in 1697, and expanded in 1772 and 1902. The estate served as headquarters for the British Army on Long Island for a brief time during the Revolutionary War. Tour through the manor and feel like you’re in a whole different era.
