The retreat was constructed using Pennsylvania Lichen Stone, with stone walls and pillars carefully built to replicate the craftsmanship of centuries past. Bronze metal seamed-heated roofs, snow guards, and cupolas crown each structure, providing both durability and architectural distinction. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with rows of English dwarf boxwoods. Price Reduction!! Do not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind historic property.
