Westland Mansion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Westland Mansion was Princeton, New Jersey home of the twenty-second and twenty-fourth President of the United States, Grover Cleveland. Purchased by Cleveland after his second term as president in 1896, the former executive lived there until his death in 1908. In that time period, Cleveland dramatically altered his home by adding a two story wing to the house. The National Park Service describes Westland as, " A 2-1/2-story, stone structure covered with stucco painted yellow, Westland had twin parlors on the first floor, spacious rooms, high ceilings, and handsome marble mantelpieces." Today, Westland, while in pristine condition is privately owned, and thus, not opened to tours by the public.
