Check out this article in todays' Boston Globe about the sale of Oakwood in Newport , which was the summer home of Mary Astor. While many of the Newport mansions have been preserved as museums, this has been a real home for over a century.
This breakfast room is relatively low key as compared to the rest of the house. Well - except for the ginormous portrait on the right.
The formal living room looks like it belongs in the White House, although the slipcovered sofa's are a casual touch that makes the room feel a bit more livable.
A recent addition is this fabulous master bathroom.So, if you have $10.7M and a hankering to live among the ghosts of the Gilded Age - this could be the place for you!
