In 1892 David Ambercrombie started the Ambercrombie Company. In 1904 David teamed up with Ezra Fitch to form Ambercrombie & Fitch. Following a great deal of success, Ambercrombie built a castle in Ossining, NY in 1929.

This property covers just over 49 acres and once featured 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and well over 4,000 square feet of living space. This beauty looks a bit different today, as you will see in the pictures below.
