How do I get a piece of that asset?
This unusual country house-built for George Clarke, between 1817 and 1835- was the Clarke family home for 150 years and 5 generations.
Hyde Hall and it's inhabitants played an important role in this area's agricultural, social, and economic development. The house remains an example of rare and distinctive architecture and one of the best-documented houses in America.
