Review & FAQ:
Dating back to 1962, Highwic is the former family home of English immigrant and prosperous businessman Alfred Buckland. The home was built in the American Carpenter Gothic style, and highlights include an elegant ballroom, an old-fashioned kitchen with a coal range, various outbuildings including stables and a billiard house, and manicured Victorian-themed grounds.
On the first Wednesday of the month, visitors can watch as the antique coal range is lit and used for cooking. The property is open every day except Christmas and Good Friday, and children receive free admission if accompanied by an adult.
