Sleepy Hollow Country Club Clubhouse ("Woodlea") (Briarcliff Manor, New York)

 residence, country house, clubhouse, movie / film / TV location

The 338 acres of “Washington Irving” hills and woodlands that make up the Sleepy Hollow Country Club were once known as Woodlea, the country estate of Mr. Butler Wright. The former Golf House, which was situated adjacent to the north end of the pool complex, was the family residence. Later this estate was purchased by Colonel Eliot F. Shepard and in 1893 the palatial home – now the main Club House – was constructed. The plans were by Stanford White of McKim, Meade & White, and constituted one of the last works of the famous architect. Shepard was married to Margaret Vanderbilt, daughter of Commodore William Vanderbilt.

The entire estate was purchased in 1910 by Mr. William Rockefeller and Mr. Frank A. Vanderlip, who in May 1911 sold and turned it over to the organizers of The Sleepy Hollow Country Club. The interior and exterior were used by S5E13 of "Royal Pains" as Hank attends an auction.
