About Our Rooms
Garden Room and Garden Room Terrace
This classically beautiful light, airy room, once the Drawing Room of the house is generous in size (19' x 18') (approximately 342 square feet) with high 12' ceilings. The Garden Room is located on the Parlor Level (flight of stairs from the ground floor). A wall featuring an oversized bow shaped window and French door is far too handsome to obscure with heavy curtains. Bamboo shades and "Grand-Mere" lace panels are an enchanting complement and serve to soften the perpetual sunlight. The south-facing room is also extremely quiet.
In the room, a working fireplace is contained within the lovely original carved wood and marble fireplace mantel. The centerpieces of the room include a dramatic four poster Ralph Lauren bed (queen size) and a tall Normandy armoire. In lieu of a sofa, Grange's Louis-Philippe day bed (single) invites lounging (the daybed also has a hidden trundle bed that pulls out). A beautiful mahogany Philadelphia breakfast table with oval top on a center pedestal and scrolled legs circa 1860 as well as many other antiques add character and warmth and many oversize paintings, add to the sense of luxury.
