General

Originally a large family farm, the property was subdivided in the 1940s by Tuller Construction Company. Ethelbert Furlong's planting list specifies "House No. 4/Red Bank, New Jersey." Curved naturalistic borders surround three sides of the rectangular lot. A formal square boxwood and flower parterre was placed to one side of the house. It is unclear whether or not the owners faithfully executed the plan.
Person(s) associated with the property include: Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Tuller (former owners 1942- ?) and Ethelbert Furlong (landscape architect).
