Ebenezer Maxwell Mansion – Victorian House and Gardens

.25

acres

Surrounding a 19th-century Victorian Eclectic mansion, this quarter-acre garden reflects the horticultural trends of suburban gardens and rural “villas” of the 1840s-1880s. The gardens draw upon principles of Andrew Jackson Downing and Frank J. Scott.

Must-See Features

A curved brick pathway passing through clustered shrubs, a “ribbon border” celebrates the Centennial style, and espaliered fruit trees and grape arbor anchor a kitchen garden.
