Have you ever dreamed",
asked COUNTRY COLLECTIONS MAGAZINE "...of waking up to an antebellum
room that would be the envy of Scarlett O'Hara?" The fulfillment of just
such a dream is the essence of the Edgewood experience. Hosts Dot and
Julian Boulware offer eight luxurious and charming guest rooms; six in
the main house and two in the former slave's quarters.
Walk through
history with Dot and Julian Boulware, at Edgewood Plantation; where time
stands still...
Situated along the oldest Highway in the U.S., Edgewood's third floor
was used during the Civil War as a lookout post for Confederate generals
when they were camped at nearby Berkeley Plantation. The estate also
includes the 1725 Benjamin Harris Grist Mill, which ground corn for both the
Union and Confederate armies. On June 15, 1862, Confederate General J.E.B.
Stuart stopped at Edgewood for coffee on his way to Richmond to warn General
Robert E. Lee of the Union Army's strength.
Edgewood Plantation is an opulent bed &
breakfast inn that features stunning interiors, rich upholstery, lavish
canopy beds, gold-guilded frames, lace and damask window treatments, and a
double free-standing winding staircase.
Edgewood
Plantation has been featured in many magazines - most recently in the Winter
issue of Victorian Decorating Magazine.
OUR RICH HISTORY AT EDGEWOOD
Edgewood Plantation - its
rich, fascinating history creates images of romance, intrigue and
antebellum splendor. An exquisite 7,000 square foot example of
Carpenter's Gothic architecture, Edgewood was once a part of Berkeley
Plantation, the ancestral home of U.S. Presidents William Henry and
Benjamin Harrison, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
Throughout its dramatic history, it has served as a church, post office,
telephone exchange, restaurant, nursing home and a signal post for the
Confederates to spy on McLellan's Army. Dating circa 1849, this is a
National & State regulated landmark.
