Property Description
Tucked away on a wooded lot in Greenfields, sets an English Cotswald. It was commissioned by Dr. Fredrick Wilson of the Goggle Factory, in Reading, after his visit to England, where he fell in love with the Cotswalds. Taking measurements and replicating the structure. Completed in 1925.
Beautiful stone structure. Leaded glass throughout brings dances of light into each room. Hand hewn timber, which begs to be touched. The wheel stone used in the construction of this home remains along the garden path.
This home, rich in history with the Mercer tile adorning the massive dining room and foyer.
The plaster relief ceiling in the dining room is most stunning at sunset.
Enjoy the quiet summer breeze on the grand patio or in the tea house.
