11. Helenscourt (1914-1985)

August 22, 2024 Emily Bunnell

Helenscourt, a grand 24-room mansion with 10 fireplaces, a music room, map room, and library, stood on this site, surrounded by terraced gardens modeled after those at the palace of Versailles. It was the home of Helen Gamwell Ely and her husband, Lt. Col. Arthur D. Budd, who named the estate Notch View Farm. On his death in 1965, the property was deeded to The Trustees of Reservations.
