I grew up on the estate (Vebeliunas family) and my family owned it for 25 years until the year 2006 at which time it was sold by my father. I believe the new owner was a mutual fund manager that started renovations but stopped further improvements shortly thereafter. It was a great place to grow up as a child.

How can it happen in this day and age that a person can buy and destroy a historic house? Let's hope the vandal who did this lost his shirt in the economic downturn and never builds anything on the site.

Adorning the estate are two works of sculpture notable for their beauty and grace. "Nymph with a Butterfly" and "The Three Graces" fountain. The sculpture is the work of J. Selmer-Larsen (1876-1967), sculptor, painter, a founder of the Marblehead (Mass.) Arts Association.
Selmer-Larsen worked for the landscape design firm of Frederick Law Olmsted and Arthur Shurtleff.
Besides this estate, examples of his work can be found at Boca Grande Hotel (1916-1975) in Florida, the Crane Estate (1915) in Ipswich, Mass., the Rockefeller Chapel, Hyde Park, Chicago; the Widener Library at Harvard (1915).
His paintings, model yachts, wood carvings and personal memorabilia can be found through the Marblehead Arts Association, 2 Hooper St., Marblehead; and through his family members, Ann Whittier, 10 River St., Salem, Mass.; and Erik Brown, 139 Sunrise, Palm Beach, Fla.

Did a cool explore here in October of '06. Place was empty, looks like the owner is going to restore it. There is a chapel attached to the house that was brought over from England and reconstructed here by the Underhill family, the chapel was built sometime in the 1600's if I remember correctly. The pool house has a crest on it that says "Lundy Bros.", is it something to do with the Brooklyn Restaurant Lundys?

I think this is Maple Knoll built for Issachar Cozzens III{hosiery}. Nassau Property card show both Henry Morgan{Morgan Stanley founder} and Abraham Oberlin{womans apparel} as being previous owners. This is backed up by the Spinzia book and others showing they had owned this property. Architects were Rouse and Goldstone - building a red brick Georgian Revival that matches the photo at mynassauproperty. The AF Bedford estate is a shingle style with no known architect - alterations by Delano & Aldrich, landscaping by EB Shipman - when John William Davis purchased estate and named it Mattapan. Maple Knoll has gone thru alterations thru out the years.
