Blithewold manor, upstairs.

.

While this is a large historic estate, it’s not dripping gold and marble like the Newport cottages.

.

.

It’s a livable home.

.

.

With very busy wallpaper.

.

.

Some of the lady of the house’s vintage dresses were on display.

.

.

.

And you can always tell the difference between a man’s bedroom and a woman’s.

.

.

The bathrooms seemed relative modern.

.

.

The master suite had two beds.

.

.

And a nautically themed mural covering the walls.

.

.

This is one of the few rooms that retained its original furnishings.

.

.

And while it’s not my taste…

.

.

The intricacy of the inlay was impressive.

.

.

And it was all in beautiful shape.

.

.

To the rear side of the master, a child’s playroom.

.

.

Complete with sailboats and hammocks.

.

.

Tour finished, we walked back to our car past the carriage house’s row of allium.
