Santillane

The brick structure features a two-story main block with three bays, four bays, and includes a single-story kitchen wing at the rear section.

Colonel George Hancock acquired the land in 1795 and established the property, which received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

The building exemplifies Greek Revival design through its shallow hipped roof and prominent tetrastyle two-story front portico added in the early 1900s.

The property extends across 35 acres and contains additional structures, including a functional stone spring house near the main building.

The residence maintains its original architectural elements while incorporating modifications that reflect the evolution of American residential design over two centuries.
