The Junior League of Central Westchester Presents a Wayside Cottage Holiday Open House and Tour

posted on

The Junior League of Central Westchester (JLCW) will be hosting a holiday open house on Sunday, December 14 from 1pm – 4pm.  Come tour historic Wayside Cottage with colonial guides this holiday season. There will be entertainment and food to put you in the holiday spirit.  Wayside Cottage, located at 1039 Post Road, will be decorated for the holiday season with authentic colonial decorations.

Wayside Cottage, which is listed on the National Registry of Historic Sites, has grown from a one-room farmhouse built in the late 1600s, to an inn, tavern and post office.  In 1853, Wayside Cottage and its land became part of the Butler Family’s country estate. It was deeded to the Village of Scarsdale in 1919 to create an historical park, to preserve the cottage and to provide a center for civic use.  The JLCW has been the loyal custodian of Wayside Cottage since 1953.
