The great room and screen-in porch are part of the original structure of the home that was built back in the 1920's by Missouri Governor Gardner. Governor Gardner was an avid outdoorsman which was his motivation for purchasing this land and building the clubhouse. The property was called Gardnerville. The clubhouse was built on the hillside with sunset views to be enjoyed by visiting family, friends, employees and political associates. In the 40's the property was sold to 4 individuals who then named the property Skyline Farms. They too hosted parties on the property. Skyline Farms was the location that then Vice-President Barkley proposed to St. Louis socialite, Ms. Jane Hadley (see attached historical articles about the home). In the 60's the current owners purchased the land and clubhouse. They kept the original great room and screen-in porch and then added the remaining portions of the home for their growing family.
