Bringing this century old Tudor Mansion back to life
The Packard Manor home was built in 1915 by the co-founder of Packard Motor Cars, William Packard and his wife Katherine. Located on the lake in the Chautauqua Institution on more than 1.2 acres and 180 feet of lake frontage, all of the manor's major rooms have gorgeous views of the lake and outdoor estate.
This project included a complete renovation with all new systems, interior finishes, and landscaping. Additions to the residence included Kitchen, Breakfast, Dining, Terrace, and Garage.
