Owl's Nest Country Place, Tudor Revival estate in Greenville, Delaware, US.
Owl's Nest Country Place is a Tudor Revival estate comprising a main residence and several outbuildings spread across a large property in Delaware. The entire complex was designed by a prominent architect and now operates as a private club.
The property was built in 1915 and stands as one of the first major estates developed by a prominent Delaware family in this region. It marks an important moment in the residential development of northern Delaware.
The landscaped grounds reflect early 20th-century garden design principles, with planting schemes that visitors can still observe throughout the property today. These green spaces remain central to the character of the place.
The property is private and visits require prior arrangement or specific occasion. It sits on well-accessed land in an established residential area with clear road access.
The property gained official recognition as a historic site only in 2010, despite being nearly a century old at that time. This relatively late designation shows how private estates can remain overlooked for decades before formal acknowledgment.
