Duncan Manor

Duncan Manor
Towanda, Illinois (IL), US
Arguably the largest farmhouse in the state of Illinois, this Italianate mansion was commissioned by successful livestock farmer William R Duncan around 1869 who had relocated to the Bloomington Illinois area from Kentucky.

Duncan did not occupy the finished mansion very long, passing away in 1876 at age 57.
