Elm Court, Historic mansion in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Elm Court spans 40 rooms across a limestone and marble structure, featuring a central courtyard and numerous gables integrated into the hillside location.
Built between 1929 and 1930 by architect Benno Janssen for Benjamin D. Phillips, son of T.W. Phillips Gas & Oil Company founder, at a cost of $1 million.
The Tudor Revival architecture incorporates detailed stone carvings, complex slate roofs, and diverse window styles that represent 1930s residential grandeur.
The mansion occupies 9.4 acres between Polk and Elm Streets, with steel-reinforced concrete construction faced in limestone, marble, and slate materials.
The property houses the fully restored Skinner Organ, Opus 783, a player instrument that adds musical significance to this National Register listed residence.
