Teackle Mansion

For Littleton Dennis Teackle, and his wife Elizabeth, building their five-part home began in the spring of 1802 and was finished 17 years later in 1819.  The Neo-Classical, 10,000 square-foot American villa style house exhibits a grandiose plan that includes formal spaces with decorative plaster finishes, an indoor bath, steam operated kitchen equipment (then unheard of modern conveniences in their day), and a wide range of elaborate furnishings.
