Tulipwood is a shingle style historic home at 1165 Hamilton Street in the Somerset section of Franklin Township, Somerset County, New Jersey, United States. It was designed by Jacob August Lienau.[2][3][4]
History
The land has been owned by the family of Mary Maclay Pentz Williams since 1877. An 8-1/4 acre portion of the original 121-acre (0.49 km2) property was transferred to Stephen Guion Williams in the last will and testament of Mary Williams on February 28, 1891.[2]
The house, Tulipwood, was built for Stephen Guion Williams of the Williams & Guion Black Star Line family in 1892. It was the third house built on the property. In 1920 Tulipwood became the home of Leigh W. Kimball and his family.[2] Kimball's grandson, Christopher Lehman was the last resident of Tulipwood before it was bought by Franklin Township, Somerset County, New Jersey in 2003 and transferred to the Meadows Foundation.[2][4]
Tulipwood, also known as Whitehaven Farms, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 9, 2005.[5]
