Washington
Iring's
Sunnyside
in
Tarrytown,
New
York
Accompanying
a
plan
of
Sunnyside
(unprinted here), a former residence of Washington Iving in New York, is the fllowing text. We
have
left
out
its
title,
which
indicates
clearly
its
purpose,
in
the
hope
that
the
reader
will
reconstruct it after reading the text.
Sunnyside is one of the few surviving and best
-
documented examples of American romanticism
in architecture and landscape design. Andrew Jackson Downing featured Sunnyside in his Treatise
on
the
Theory
and
Practice
of
Landscape
Gardening
(1841)
as
an
example
of
the
improvement
in
Rural
Architecre..

Walking the 24
-
acre grounds is a pleasure in every season. Swans glide on the pond Irving called
path leads up a small rise and from there down into
house, another path winds along the Hudson for views of the river at its widest point, the Tappan
Zee.
The modest stone cottage which was later to become Sunnyside was originally a tenant farmer's
house
built
in
the
late
-
seventeenth
century
on
the
Philipsburg
Manor.
During
the
eighteenth
century,
the
cottage
was
owned
by
a
branch
of
the
Van
Tassel
family,
the
name
Irving
later
immortalized in
Irving purchased the cottage in 1835 and directed the remodeling, adding Dutch
-
stepped gables,
ancient weathervanes, and developing Gothic and Romanesque architectural features for other
parts of the house. He was so pleased with his home that in 1836 he wrote to his brother, Peter:
own
humor.
Everything
goes
on
cheerily
in
my
ltte
household
and
I
would
not
exchange
the
cottage for any chateau in Christendom.'
Today's visitor to Sunnyside sees Irving's home much as it appeared during the final years of his
life. The author's bookdined study contains his writing desk
--
a gift from his publisher, G.P
. Putnam
and
many
personal
possessions.
The
dining
room,
in
which
Irving
and
his
dinner
guests
often
gathered
to
enjoy
the
beautiful
sunsets
over
the
Hudson
River,
adjoins
the
parlor.
Here
Irving
played his flute, while his nieces, Sarah and Catherine, accompanied him on the rosewood piano.
The
piano
and
other
original
furnishings
still
grace
the
room.
The
small
picture
gallery
off
the
parlor contains some original ilustrations for Inving's work. The kitchen was quite advanced for its
day,
having
a
hot
water
boiler
and
running
water
fed
from
the
pond
through
a
gravity
-
blow
system. The iron cookstove was also a
1850's.
The second floor of the house contains several bedrooms, each of which has its own personal
character. The guest bedroom is furnished with a French
-
style
bed
and
painted
cottage
pieces.
The
ingenious
arches
in
this
and
other
rooms
were
designed by Irving. His bedroom, where he died in 1859, contains the author's tester Sheraton
bed, along with his walking stick and a number of his garments and personal effects. The small,
bright room between the bedrooms might have been used by Irving's nephew and biographer,
Pierre
Munro
Irving,
who
cared
for
his
undle
during
the
last
months
of
his
life.
The room
was
used
originally
to
store
books
and
papers.
The
bedroom
used
by
Irving's
nieces
contains
an
Irving
-
family field bed with hand
-
made bobbin lace hangings, a chest of drawers, sewing stands,
and an ormamental stove. The guest room contains a cast iron bed probably made in one of the
foundries along the Hudson.
