A note on the room
A room worth gathering in.
Inside, three resplendent chandeliers anchor a single open room with navy wainscoting and tall French doors that open onto a brick patio and walled courtyard. The room is candlelit by evening and sun-soft by day, with the easy elegance you’d expect from a classic parlor.
