I wondered too ... not much history on Zillow.

It's almost like a movie set in how each detail is in place... the lighthouse does seem shorter than the original.

Depends on what the terrain is in the area they are marking on how high the lighthouses are. Like how far away do you have to anticipate the situation. Lighthouses that mark entrances on flat coasts aren't necessarily that high.

The lighthouse that stands there now is not the original. History linked below. Braddock Point Lighthouse

It's a B&B now and looks like it's still active -
