Interior
The interior of the house contains a stately and inviting entrance hall that culminates with a winding stairway in the semi-circular end of the central corridor. The unique arched window at the end of the upper hall has a central arch with fluted pilasters and capitals of smaller windows on either side. The cornices of heavy overhanging moldings in the rooms off the stair hall are characteristic of Greene’s design. The fireplace mantles are of marble in a Greek revival style. Frescos can be seen in both the hallway and drawing room depicting hunting scenes and landscapes. A Neapolitan artist Felice Michele Corne executed the mural decorations in 1810. |
