RESIDENCE 28

Twenty miles outside of Manhattan, this 6,000-square-foot family home feels air-lifted from the South of France into historic Bronxville, New York. Known locally as La Capucine manor, the estate's architectural bones — golden limestone, weathered oak, antique fireplaces — were preserved and reclaimed by original designer Cheryl Skoog Tague from a defunct 18th-century convent in France's Dordogne-Périgord region.

Inside, tropicality meets history through custom pieces: a bespoke palm-frond rug with Doris Leslie Blau, a seafoam ceramic agave chandelier by Etienne Marc, a cast-iron Cala planter from Bradley L. Bowers, terracotta kitchen tile, a mahogany-paneled office fireplace, chicken-and-rooster iconography (Cuban symbols of luck) on vintage china and Amy Bravo artwork, and a one-of-a-kind Domino Table with Rooms Studio, modeled after communal play tables in Latin American parks.
