At the heart of the estate is a beautifully preserved 1787 Cape, with original fireplaces, rich with warmth and history. It is surrounded by formal English boxwood gardens, an intimate outdoor environment for restorative moments. The soaring post-and-beam barn with grand interiors, and a dramatic glass facade overlooking the quad creates an unforgettable setting for romantic and elegant entertaining on both a small and large scale.
