The Grand Salon

Features Grand Entrance Grand Salon Dining Room Bedroom Suite Home Contact

While the home has three formal entrances, most people enter via the imperial-style staircase that leads directly to the grand salon - a spectacular room measuring 40 by 50 feet, with a sweeping, steeply curved teak ceiling peaking at 45 feet. DeLong conceived of the room as a vast and luxurious screened porch opening on four sides to capture both breezes and views. The ceiling's great height, he explains, help cool the room.
