Frederick had left his mansion to Marion Louderback Lord who wanted only to sell it. The 1924 real estate booklet described the property: “On a sheltered eminence, half-hidden by its guardian trees, is the Kohl residence – a dignified manor house, typical of the Tudor days, mature and venerable as its surroundings. “The seasoned reds of the old brick walls, the mullioned windows in their settings of stone, the rambling gables, the slated roofs – all blend in mellow harmony with the patriarch oaks, the well-kept lawns, the broad terraces, the comely parterres, and the quaint tiled walks of the summer rose-garden.”

During that time the mansion was used for exterior shots for the Mary Pickford silent movie “Little Lord Fauntleroy.”
