Millennium Manor is currently under construction (they are also asking for contributions of rocks -- on the larger side). It was closed when I went, but you might see a bunch of people working on it, and it seems to be in mid-repair. You can still see the exterior (bring a rock if you can). It does have unique architectural elements. While it's a registered historical property (as per the placard outside), it is also a private residence, so don't go wandering around while it's closed.

Heard eerie music playing inside Millennium Manor while we were there. Very cool, hidden gem.

Worth seeing. But now it seems it's only open to the public on one day during the year - Memorial Day. However, you can walk all around the property and take photographs.
