the property was auctioned and Dr. and Mrs. Richard
Fowler purchased a portion of the estate including the
mansion. The property remained in the Fowler family until
it was repurchased in 1972 by the great-nephew of Harding
Allen, Steve Goldsmith. He and his wife Ina owned the
property until February of 1995, when it was acquired by
Alain Beret and James Fairbanks. In February of 2004,
they passed it on to the present owners, Carmine &
Grace Gugliotti.The mansion is distinguished by an
imposing two-story portico and elegant balustraded
porches. Inside, the fine interior plaster molding,
carved millwork and marble detail executed by expert
Italian craftsmen has all been preserved intact. Original
lighting fixtures are featured throughout.
