It is loosely patterned after Westover Plantation. Also on the property are a contributing horseshoe stable, superintendent's cottage, ice house and garage, U-shaped barn, small barn and a water tower. It is now a boarding school known as The Knox School.[2] The Estate house is currently known as Houghton Hall. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
