One of Bucks County’s most well-known estates is regarded as one of the most exquisite buildings in the Philadelphia region.

The Andalusia Historic House, Gardens and Arboretum, located at 1237 State Road in Andalusia, an area of Bensalem, is widely regarded as one of the most eloquent property in both Bucks County and the Philadelphia area.

Kings View of Philadelphia, a page on Facebook, wrote about the estate.

“The original house was built in 1794 by John Craig, who named it after the Andalusia region of Spain. Craig hired architect Benjamin Latrobe to expand the house in 1806 in a Greek Revival style,” the Facebook page said.

“In 1811, Craig’s daughter Jane married prominent financier Nicholas Biddle (1786–1844). Biddle and architect Thomas U. Walter expanded the house into a mansion in 1834–36. Walter is best known for his design for the dome of the United States Capitol.”
