Hempstead House:

Step inside extravagant Gold Coast opulence at Sands Point Preserve’s Hempstead House. Wander in amazement among the grandiose rooms inside the massive Tudor style castle where formal, grand parties were hosted along with gatherings of the powerful elite of the time.
It’s difficult not to be impressed by the imposing 60-foot tall, vaulted ceiling of the foyer that depicts the extraordinary lifestyle of the roaring 1920s and 1930s with its magnificent Wurlitzer Opus 445 Theater Organ as a decorative highlight.
Our tour will take us through miraculous room after miraculous room each with its own character and lavish charm.
