Tyvan Hill was de- signed by the New York architec- tural firm of Peabody, Wilson & Brown, one of the preeminent and prolific designers of large country residences. Visitors to Tyvan Hill will have the opportunity to tour the man- sion and view original interior features, from an elegant curved staircase and paneling to elegant moldings, while experiencing the interior designers’ unique trans- formations in their specific spac- es. A tour of the gardens will pro- vide visitors with the pleasure of spending time among beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces filled with flowering plants, water fea- tures, relaxing seating, dramatic sculpture, and inspiring artwork. Guests will be able to tour the house, the extensive gardens, and the pool area with its charm- ing Pool House.
