Tulipwood

Arts & Culture
Tulipwood is a Shingle Style historic house at 1165 Hamilton Street in the Somerset section of Franklin Township, New Jersey, designed by Jacob August Lienau and also known as Whitehaven Farms. An 8.25-acre portion of Mary Maclay Pentz Williams's original 121-acre estate passed to Stephen Guion Williams in 1891, and the house was built for him in 1892 as the third house on the property. In 1920 it became the home of Leigh W. Kimball's family, and his grandson Christopher Lehman was the last resident. Franklin Township bought the property in 2003, transferred it to the Meadows Foundation, and it now serves as a museum recognized on the National Register of Historic Places.
