| .......Greystone Hall is a Tudor Revival mansion designed by Philadelphia architect Charles Barton Keen and built in 1907 for Philip M. Sharples, the inventor and manufacturer of the Sharples Cream Separator. This great American country house is part of what was planned as a complete turn-of-the-century gentleman's country estate. Remarkably preserved, visiting Greystone Hall is a return to the age of elegance. The mansion, with exteriors of superbly pointed gray Foxcroft granite, is an architectural gem. It is an excellent example of the classic tradition in American country house architecture. |
| Featured in the interior are: an oak and leather paneled Library, a Music Room with a hand painted decorative ceiling, a Dining Room with fine plaster moldings and a carved wood chandelier in fruit garland patterns, and an intimate Reception Room. All of these rooms have decorative fireplaces and are furnished with antiques and oriental rugs. A Tent Pavilion, which can accommodate two hundred guests, spans the length of the mansion. |
