Historic Chester Manor Offered for Sale

frnt-ext-31When built in the early 1900s, Chester Manor was the crown jewel of the area – a sizeable horse farm nestled between the sleepy downtown port of Chestertown on the Chester River and the campus of the historic Washington University. Later in the century, the estate was subdivided and the property became a funeral home for wealthy Chestertonians. After extensive restoration in the nineties, the property, at 206 Washington Avenue was turned into a bed and breakfast, operating as such for five or six years before being sold due to family issues.

The current owners (Chestertown Preservation LLC) purchased the property in 2010 and lovingly restored that which needed attention­­. In their opinion, Chester Manor is truly an exceptional property, in very good condition. The primary objective of Chestertown Preservation LLC is to see that the property is preserved in a manner fitting of its heritage.
