The Crocker Mansion in Mahwah is a stately Jacobean-style manor constructed in 1907 and modeled after the 17th-century Bramshill House in England. Wealthy businessman George Crocker built the massive three-story home for the equivalent of $70 million in 2025.

It was named to the New Jersey Register of Historic Places in 1995 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. Set on 12.5 rolling acres, this celebrated residence boasts 50,000 square feet of living space, featuring 15 fireplaces, 21 bedrooms, 19 full bathrooms, and seven half bathrooms.

Just recently, this architectural marvel has been listed by Compass for $26.9 million. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for the right buyer to acquire one of New Jersey’s truly exceptional and historic homes.

“If you’re seeking something truly extraordinary, opportunities like this are exceptionally rare,” noted listing agent Carl Gambino of The Gambino Group at Compass. “Properties of such historical significance, scale, and proximity to the city seldom come to market.”

The elegant brick and stone facade of the mansion rises above a bubbling fountain and circular driveway. The house is perched atop a hill, and acres of lush green lawn and gorgeous gardens roll gently downhill. Two brick pergolas radiate from the north and south wings of the home. A wooden arched double door beckons at the main entrance into the house.

Stepping into the majestic foyer of the Crocker Mansion is a leap into a bygone age of fine craftsmanship and unparalleled luxury. A majestic staircase rises to the second floor with an ornately carved banister. The walls are clad in rich chestnut wood paneling. While only 118 years old, the Crocker Mansion radiates a classic old-world elegance.

Even that grand entrance cannot prepare anyone for the magnificence of the great hall. It was designed to impress, and more than a century later, this massive space still has the power to overwhelm.

Seven meticulously crafted wooden arches span one wall and welcome guests into the home’s central showpiece. A towering pipe organ dominates one end of the room while massive windows offering spectacular vistas of the Ramapo Mountains flank an imposing fireplace on the other. Two opulent chandeliers are suspended from the nearly 30-foot-high ceiling. Doors on either end lead to more sumptuous spaces.

Throughout the mansion, modern conveniences are seamlessly integrated into the elegance and grandeur of the past. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens are fully updated in opulent style.

This house is designed for grand-scale entertaining. A restaurant-style kitchen with a huge pantry spans two floors. An elegant formal dining room with an elaborate wooden ceiling and rich, California redwood-paneled walls affords gorgeous views on three sides. The dark and peaceful library is the perfect spot to contemplate the ceiling painted by muralist James Wall Finn.

A tour of the basement reveals a world of luxury and comfort. Below, you’ll find a lavish, fully appointed spa with an indoor pool, sauna, steam room, hair salon, massage table, fitness center, bar, and locker rooms.

For those seeking other diversions, the property features a home theater, recording studio, billiard room, wine cellar with a sitting room, cigar lounge, and game room. There are also separate multi-bedroom living suites for staff and security personnel, as well as laundry, storage rooms, and offices.

Few homes have 21 bedrooms, fewer still feature 21 bedrooms with sitting rooms, breathtaking views, walk-in closets, anterooms, and dedicated full bathrooms. The second and third floors are devoted to spacious, luxurious accommodations for both owners and guests.

Outside, the estate features a gorgeous swimming pool with a cabana, well-manicured lawn and gardens, a quiet wooden gazebo, two fountains, and a tennis court. Other outbuildings include a gatehouse, a guest house, and an 8-car garage.

Listing agent Diane Cookson of Compass sums it up perfectly, “I would say it’s the most fascinating piece of real estate in New Jersey. It’s one of a kind.”
