Seekonk, Massachusetts, an expansion of the Plymouth Bay Colony, has a storied place in early American History. The Jacob Hill Inn, just 10 minutes from downtown Providence, has a long history as well, connecting the still existing homes and its land to the colonists who purchased the land from the Wampanoag Indians in 1641.
Today, the Jacob Hill Inn is a 12-room state-of-the-art Bed & Breakfast with all the modern amenities one could imagine. The property includes 3 buildings: The Club House, the original Allyn Homestead (circa 1722), now 5,400 sqft, 7 bedrooms & 8.5 bathrooms, w/ kitchen, dining room, meeting room, sunporch & 5 original fireplaces; The White Barn, former groomsmen quarters and stables, now 6,100 sqft, 5 bedrooms & 5.5 baths, breakfast room, meeting room, game room and commercial kitchen; and The Carriage House, now a 1,080 sqft 2 bed & 1 bath inn-keeper's residence with 1,080 sqft 3-bay garage below. The buildings sit on 5.1 acres of manicured pasture land and offer a tennis court, swimming pool, sunset gazebo, gift shop, billiards room and media/screening area.
During the early part of the 20th Century, during the era of gentry horsemanship, the property had transformed into the upscale Jacob Hill Hunt Club, where hunting, racing, jumping and showing were de rigueur. National names with connections in Newport, including Vanderbilt, Firestone, Aldrich and Gladding were regular visitors. Seekonk has always been known as Providence's Countryside--a quiet, natural respite for affluent families from the East Side--and the Jacob Hill Hunt Club's membership and guest books from the period were a literal Who's Who both locally and nationally.
Today, the estate is owned by Eleonora and Bill Rezek, who purchased the compound in 1991 and not only restored the three historic properties, converting them into the Jacob Hill Inn, the highest professionally rated B&B/Inn in Greater Providence, but the Rezeks have also become purveyors of its history, collecting relics of its past, which are on display. Not just a business, their ownership has been an effort of conscientious stewardship.
The Jacob Hill Inn is a rare offering, The business and the real estate are being offered for $1,800,000. Private tours only. Please call 508-336-9165 or email jacobhillinn@msn.com
