Parlor and Private Rooms

The doors to the right lead to the parlor, with its wood-burning fireplace and beveled glass mirror designed to reflect and increase the light from the chandelier.  The chandelier was manufactured by Waterford in 1907 and has been converted from gas/electric to full electric. Only one of the matching Waterford sconces remains on the far wall. 

There are two sets of cherry pocket doors connecting the parlor to the hall. The ceiling was recently replaced in a renovation and features a carved plaster molding identical to that shown on the original blueprints.

 

This original Gas-Electric Waterford crystal chandelier is shown in House & Garden's Feature article in 1911.

First Floor Private Rooms

The original dining room now serves a private quarters for the owners and is not open to the public. It is done in cherry with wainscoted panels. The is a small brass plate in the floor where the buzzer to call the butler was hidden beneath the table. A stained glass window can be viewed from the outside and features an Irish thatched cottage. A butlers pantry is in chestnut and serves as the office. The kitchen keeps it original chestnut countertops and pantry cabinets which extend to the ceiling. There is a speaking tube which is connected to the master bedroom (Chamber 3), and the original servant bells are lined up over the kitchen door. Each one reflected a call from a different part of the house. One is currently hooked up to our door bell for an authentic but unromantic buzzer. They’re pictured in the House and Garden article on display in the living room.
