Today's Endicott Estate is the second home to stand on these grounds. The original homestead burned to the ground in 1904 after the local volunteer fire department, responding to three separate fires burning simultaneously, reached the Endicott fire last. By the time they arrived, it was too late. Only ashes remained. It is said that Henry Bradford Endicott took the burning of the homestead as a divine command to rebuild. And rebuild he did, in a truly grand manner.
Today, the Endicott Estate has the distinction of being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a privilege to offer the use of the Estate and surrounding grounds to the public, upholding Henry's stepdaughter Katherine's wish to use the house and property for "educational, civic, social and recreational purposes."
