Salutation (estate)
House in Long Island, New York
About
The Salutation estate is a 45-room Colonial Revival mansion on West Island, in Glen Cove, Long Island. The house was built in 1929 by architect Roger Bullard for Junius Spencer Morgan III. Master iron worker Samuel Yellin also worked on this house. The home was originally constructed in 1919, with a later addition completed in 1929. It was used as the main residence for Junius Spencer Morgan III and his family.
The home is 27,000 square feet (2,500 m2) and has had only three owners. In 1974, Junius Spencer Morgan III sold the estate to John Stockwell Samuels, III, a Texas-born coal magnate, prominent lawyer, and father to actor John Stockwell. In 1993, the estate on 21.46 acres (8.68 ha) was for sale by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York for $5.7 million, and was purchased by Margo Walker, a real estate broker and socialite, for $9 million. In 2017, the home was put up for sale again, along with the other homes on the island, for the price of $125 million.
