Glen Manor House

Built in 1923, Glen Manor House was the summer residence of the Taylor family and part of the larger Glen Farm estate in Portsmouth. The house was designed by architect John Russell Pope, drawing inspiration from the Petit Trianon at Versailles, while the surrounding gardens were created by the Olmsted Brothers. Overlooking the Sakonnet River, the estate is now owned by the town and remains one of Aquidneck Island’s most elegant historic properties.
