A beautiful house that must have been very grand in its day. It has the most incredible staircase. I would like to revisit in warmer weather and see the grounds next time.

This beautiful estate holds an architectural treasure that stands out from other guilded age extravagance by being the product of prosperity, artistic and thoughtful design, and craftsmanship instead of the opulent but shallow temples to materialism found in other historic mansions. Rather than simply being a product of its time, it sets conventions of value for then next century. The museum is small, but well worth the low price of admission for any history or architecture buff, and the grounds form an expansive natural park that is pleasant to explore. Dogs are very welcome.

Excellent area to go jogging/biking. There are several trails around Stonehurst that are worth going on.

Don't even bother if you want to take photos. They don't allow it.
