Shown here, the living room. The property was called 'Renemede' by its original owner, architect Henry J. Hardenbergh, who built the home at the turn of the century, according to a history on the area written by John Turpin and W. Barry Thomson. Mr. Hardenbergh designed the original Waldorf and Astoria hotels, which were demolished in 1929, and the Plaza Hotel, built in 1907. A portion of the hotel's interior has received landmark designation.

The kitchen in the home is pictured. Mr. Hardenbergh also designed the Dakota apartment building, which was built in 1884 and is also landmarked. It was one of the city's first luxury apartment buildings, Mr. Turpin writes. The original Renemede estate is estimated to have been between 40 and 70 acres and provided a 'respite from Manhattan' for Hardenbergh's family, writes Mr. Turpin.

After purchasing the home, Ms. Remolina renovated the kitchen and laundry, redid some wiring and plumbing on the first floor and redid some floors. Later, she added a balcony to the second floor and expanded an existing garage to accommodate five cars. She did not make any other structural changes to the home, saying, 'I never really wanted to change the original essence of the house.'

Here, the dining room. In a 1903 House and Garden feature on the property, the home was described as having "extreme simplicity of outline and exterior finish," rare among more ostentatious estates that showcased the "owner's fear of not appearing sufficiently individual and original if omitting from the embellishment of the outside of their dwellings evidence of wealth and bad taste." In contrast, Renemede had "impressive external vigor," the writer stated.

Shown here, the second-floor sitting area, which leads out to a balcony, added by Ms. Remolina. She says she was drawn to the property not only for its history but its eight acres of land, which allowed the family to have horses when they first moved in. A portion of the land is farm assessed and the property has a three-stall stable and barn. 'I liked the idea of having more property to your home, instead of the confinement of three-quarters of an acre,' she says.

The master bedroom is pictured. The approximately 8,600-square-foot home has nine wood-burning fireplaces, three of which are currently in use. 'It's a lovely home for raising your family, everyone had their own space,' says Ms. Remolina of the six-bedroom, 5-½ bathroom home.

Shown here, the master bathroom. Ms. Remolina is moving because she wants to downsize, but says she might stay in the area, which she praised for having a supportive community and good school system.

A second floor bedroom is pictured. The fireplace mantelpieces are believed to be original. Ms. Remolina says the home would suit 'someone with kids, somebody who likes older traditional homes,' she says.

An office space is pictured. 'The structure of the house is unbeatable,' says Ms. Remolina. 'Nothing is going to move this. When you have a regular rainstorm, you don't feel the wind.' she says. 'It's a very solid house.'

The rear of the house is pictured with a structure believed to be the home's original water tower. The property was first listed with Farmbrook Realty in 2007 for $4.2 million. It was then listed with Richard Monks and Molly Scott of Turpin Realtors in 2011 for slightly under $3.2 million and had its priced reduced before reaching its current listing price of slightly under $2 million.
