Brookby, formerly the Blodgett Estate and now part of Aquinas College, serves as the residence of the college president and a venue for distinguished guests. This historic 12,000 sq. ft. estate hosts weddings, graduation parties, recitals, and presentations with ease.

Two additional buildings are included (see complete floor plans of manor & ground survey). Suggested uses include: private residence, senior living with inter-generational collab through Aquinas, B&B, event venue, or an additional building site.
