Colonel Rupperts Turn-of-the-Century carriage house has been transformed into an idyllic luxury loft, with a distinguished place in regional and literary history. This rare, surviving structure, of the Gilded Age Linwood Estate, was built by eccentric Beer Baron and New York Yankee owner Col. Jacob Ruppert.
