Part 4/10:
Completed around 1901, Kildesart was an imposing structure based on Tudor Revival style, giving it the majestic appearance of an old English manor transported to New Jersey’s coast. Built from stone, brick, and concrete, the mansion stretched roughly 200 feet, comprising over sixty rooms, including numerous luxurious bedrooms and servant quarters. It was considered the second most opulent private residence on the New Jersey coast, second only to the Shad Hall mansion.
