Historic Whitehall Estate In Peru, Indiana. Childhood Estate of Cole Porter’s Mother
Top of stair landing. Just changed the painting but I love painting lights. Makes any room cozy and more romantic.
Inside front door in foyer. Love the pics of our trips on the wall framed, love the original brick wall and love the Hermes throw. The previous owners had a chair in the same spot but I wanted one with an ottoman and a solid neutral fabric.
Close up of us in framed pics from vacation in Alaska and in Paris. Next stop for the Leggett’s is Italy in 43 days! CAN’T WAIT!
The antique Eastlake Chaise on our balcony was purchased from the auction of Ms. Marie Stuart this winter. She was a VERY impressive and historical figure who led the women’s suffrage movement and helped earn women the right to vote. She held secret meetings at her mansion in Peru and was a philanthropist whose donations and money can be seen all over the USA. I was lucky enough to score multiple Eastlake pieces of hers, her library collection, her bedroom suite and an 18th century serpent dr
Photo of the kitchen. It’s being painted this year just not sure what color yet.
Another photo of the kitchen. The chandalier and fireplace make the room pop.
