Description and history
Built in 1909, the main house is a 2-1/2 story L-shaped stucco-clad structure, basically vernacular English Revival in its styling, with some arts and crafts detailing. The house, along with the accompanying carriage house were designed by architect Thomas Mott Shaw, who made the estate his home for most of his professional life. Shaw drew inspiration for the house from the architecture of the Cotswolds in England. The house's most prominent feature is a three-story octagonal tower that projects from the center of the L.[2]
The estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 20, 1987.[1]
