The manor home was completed in approximately 1714. By the early 1800’s, the property had changed hands and was owned by the Gantt family whose descendants still live in the area today. The original property included over 1200 acres all the way down to the banks of the river. Today, this brick home sits atop the highest point of the remaining 74+ acres.
