The carriage house is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

Pierre Lorillard, founder of Tuxedo Park, commissioned architect James Brown Lord in 1886 to construct his residence on the eastern shore of Tuxedo Lake. The main house of the estate called “Imlagh”, adjoins these properties, one of which is its former carriage house. Imlagh was purchased by George Fisher Baker in 1888. Said to be the wealthiest man in the Park, Bakers’ financial empire extended from railroads and steel companies to vast Wall street holdings. Mr. Baker left the Park in 1932 and Mr. R.L. Auchincloss purchased it.

This structure has remained intact, a one and one-half story rustic stone building with hipped roof, S-tiled, a low wide V, two wings joined by center tower with arched entrance and octagonal shingled belfry with pyramidal roof, distinctive wooden gables, brackets under deep eaves and transom. A detached stone garage, called “laboratory” in a 1938 Assessment Book has stepped gabled ends and casement windows. The famous architects Warren & Wetmore, who among other landmark buildings in New York City were commissioned to build Grand Central Terminal, designed and constructed this grand carriage house.
