Historic Swan House of Cove Neck As part of the esteemed Cove Neck enclave, this residence enjoys a unique connection to local and national history: Historic Swan House of Cove Neck: The Swan House of Cove Neck is a distinguished historic residence long associated with the Swan family, prominent figures in the social and maritime life of Long Island's North Shore. The estate is notably connected to Theodore Roosevelt, who was a frequent visitor during his youth and is documented to have spent time at the home while courting Emily Swan, including teaching her the game of lawn tennis on the property's grounds. The Swan House also played a role in the early formation of the Seawanhaka Yacht Club, as Emily Swan's father gathered with his peers at the home during the formative period leading to the club's founding. The home also previously served as meeting house for Cove Neck Village Government in the earlier years. Today, the Swan House offers the rare opportunity to reside within a property that reflects the heritage, social history, and enduring character of the Gold Coast. This home is being offered by the great grand nephew of W.R. Grace, shipping tycoon and former Mayor of NY who welcomed the Statue of Liberty!
