John E. Aldred Estate, also known as St. Josaphat's Monastery, is a historic estate located at Lattingtown in Nassau County, New York. It was designed in 1916 by noted architect Bertram Goodhue (1869-1924) for public utility executive John Edward Aldred. The grounds were designed by the Olmsted Brothers. The estate consists of the main residence, known as Ormston; the superintendent's quarters; hen house; 2 12-story, hip-roofed stable; greenhouse and conservatory; garage; utility shed; garden shed; gazebo; and two gatehouses. The main house is a Tudor Revival–style dwelling built of random-coursed, quarry-faced limestone and roofed in heavy slate. The Basilian Order of Saint Josaphat purchased the property in 1944.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
