Knollwood, Historic estate on Salisbury Street in Worcester, United States
The Knollwood estate features a central two-and-a-half-story stucco building with a complex hipped tile roof and asymmetrical wings spanning 15 acres of land.
The estate was constructed in the 1910s for industrialist Lyman Gordon, co-founder of Wyman-Gordon, who passed away before the construction was completed.
The property demonstrates the architectural preferences of early 20th-century industrial leaders through its French-influenced design and formal tree-lined entrance approach.
Notre Dame Academy, a private girls' school, currently operates within the Knollwood estate, which includes multiple outbuildings such as a caretaker's house and garage.
The estate retains its original features including a three-story central pavilion with decorated gable and a western wing containing a Palladian window leading to a terrace.
