The Manor House was built in 1832 by Joseph West for his younger sister, Maria, and her husband, Daniel Estell, as a wedding present. Daniel Estell was the co-owner and operator of the Estellville Glassworks until his death in 1858. The two and half story home was constructed of sandstone and is of vernacular Federal architecture. The last family descendant to live there was Rebecca Estell Bougeois Winston, Daniel Estell’s granddaughter. It was her home until her death in 1933. Mrs. Winston, the first woman mayor in New Jersey, was elected mayor of Estell Manor in 1925.
