Hampton Mansion Awaits RediscoveryNews | 0 comments | Print This Post | Email This Post AP | 2007-12-31 Hampton Mansion has plenty of historical and architectural significance. All it needs is a higher profile. The mansion, maintained by the National Park Service, is considered one of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the country. It’s one of just a handful of plantation homes with extant slave quarters. With 25,000 square feet of living space, it was the largest private home in the U.S. when it was completed in 1790.
