  • What’s New

    • New carpet has been installed in the dining room. The carpet was manufactured in England. As was the standard at the time, strips of carpet 27″ wide were sewn together to make what we consider “wall to wall carpeting.”  We think it is absolutely stunning. Come for a tour and see for yourself. You can reserve a tour using the link on the left hand side of this page.
