Harding's widow, Carrie C. Allen, passed away in 1946, 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.
