Picture this. 800 acres of land in the Early 1900s in Rockland County, NY. What does somebody do with all that land? Build a factory? Build a business? Enter soon to be founder of Paramount Pictures, Adolf Zukor. Zukor purchased three hundred acres of land from Lawrence Abraham, who had already built a nice size house, a nine hole golf course and a pool on the property. Approximately two years later, Zukor purchased another 500 acres and built a night house, guest house, movie theatre, locker room, greenhouses, garages, staff houses and hired famous Golf Course Architect, A.W. Tillinghast to build an 18-hole golf course. In 1948, the property was sold and became Dellwood Country Club and is now known as Paramount Country Club.*
43 Roberts Road in New City, NY was built on the property once owned by Adolf Zukor. Architecturally designed, the homeowners spent two years working with the architect to design their dream home. Now, 30+ years later, it is time for them to say goodbye and have a new family move in and create as many memories as they did.
