THINGS TO IN DO NEWPORT, RI
NEWPORT
Newport is a city set on Aquidneck Island in the New England state of Rhode Island. Its yacht-filled harbor hosted the America’s Cup, a renowned annual sailing regatta, for many years. Newport is also known for the Gilded Age mansions lining Bellevue Avenue, some of which are now museums. The most famous is The Breakers, an 1895 mansion patterned after a Renaissance palace.

A few last pictures of Chateau-sue-mer before moving on. I’m a big fan of the staircase and all the layers in this house. When you look up from the center of the house you can look straight up to this art glass skylight seen in photo one. The staircase has a motif of the tree of life painted on the underside of all three flights. I also love how all the ceilings are painted and all the various wallpapers. If you ever get a chance to get to Newport and see this house in person I definitely recommend it. There are more impressive houses to tour in the city and this one often gets overlooked against the Breakers, Marble House, or the Elms, but it would definitely be a mistake to miss it. For more info and history please see my previous posts about the exterior. And see newport_mansions for info about visiting (probably in the spring).
The sky over the holiday scene at The Breakers is pure December magic!

Apologies for my silence the past few days. I was feeling extremely uninspired and frustrated with my pictures of Chateau-sur-mer's upstairs. There are basically a perfect split of horizontal and vertical pics and I just don't know what shows off this spectacular home best. I've come to the realization that neither do, so I might as well just post them.
My freshman year of college a mouse decided to take up residence in my bedroom. Just my bedroom, not the whole dorm. A couple of dudes decided to put on some bravado and find the mouse. They came out about a minute later telling me that they had expected a less busy room. They picked the wrong girl. So, it's no wonder I love Chateau-sur-mer so much. These are basically all the bedrooms and the Turkish Sitting room (picture five with the pink settee). At this time 'Turkish' would likely not be truly Turkish, but a stand in for anything perceived to be Eastern. The bedrooms begin with the Butternut Room, which was George Peabody Wetmore's childhood bedroom. It is located next to Annie's Bedroom, Wetmore's sister. Both their headboards are monogrammed. The next bedroom shown is George Wetmore's Bedroom as an adult. It's the only room that was not redecorated by his daughters after his death. Mrs. Wetmore, Edith's, Bedroom and Boudoir are the final photos.
I will probably post a few more vertical photos tomorrow and then hopefully get back on track posting next week.
It’s Christmas time at Surfers end 🎄🏄🏽♂️

Downstairs at Chateau-sur-mer! This home is far more Victorian than many of the other Newport mansions. Which is part of what I love about it. White I can't help but be impressed with the grandiosity of Beaux-Arts or Italian palazzo homes of the other captains of industry, I feel like Chateau-sur-mer fits my personal aesthetic almost perfectly (except. obviously way less grand). Starting in the library with it's Luigi Frullini walnut decor. I love how everything is laid out on the desk for the ultimate viewing experience. My favorite detail is the owl shaped humidor, which you can see if you squint, but I will have a detail in Stories. The third and fourth photos show what was once the main entrance to the house before the remodeling done by Richard Morris Hunt in the early 1870s. When that entrance was closed up and moved to where it is today, facing North, this became a bit of an extraneous, though beautiful, area. Photos six and seven are of the ballroom, which is probably the brightest room in the house. Because of the darkness in the home I sometimes had trouble with the light coming in from the outside. But not in the ballroom, which is probably the most Gilded Age looking room in the home. Next comes the dining room, which is so ornate and beautiful that it's almost impossible to get it all. There will also be a lot of details in Stories. Finally, there is the butler's pantry with scores of gorgeous china. Including a lot of the blue and white stuff that was so common that it was often used as ballast on transport ships. There is just so much to look at in this home.

When making Christmas plans in Newport please remember that the Preservation Society of Newport newport_mansions discriminates against disabled people undergoing chemotherapy.
Oh. They also don't pay any taxes to Newport. Let that sink in.
And they received a PPP handout of TWO MILLION DOLLARS in January, 2021, while firing employees.

Kahlua and milk was another staple of the 1980s. The drink of sophistication for young women who didn’t really like the taste of wine. Sniffing the neck of the gummed up old bottle at the back of my pantry shoots me back to summer nights at the old Newport Arms, with tow-headed lads with their sun-peeled noses and the all the tanned girls with frangipanis tucked behind their ears. There was a thrill of excitement when I came through the entrance. You never knew what might happen, who you may meet and every night became a story to dissect with your friends afterwards.

Ochre Court is another one that I featured way way back when I'd just started this account. It had about a hundred and fifty likes. Which is obviously not enough because how can you fail to be impressed by a châteauesque mansion overlooking the ocean? Below is the history I wrote about it before. As stated there it is owned by Salve Regina University now and I've heard they don't always mind people poking in to see some of what's left of the interiors. But I just wasn't going to do that during a pandemic. But Newport is a place where I'll always return so maybe someday. I do wish it was a museum though because as impressed as I am by the Breakers, this sort of thing, while absolutely ridiculous, is so my jam.
Ochre Court, located at 100 Ochre Point Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island is a châteaueaque mansion built in 1892 by architect Richard Morris Hunt for banker and real estate titan Odgen Goelet. It is the second largest mansion in Newport (after The Breakers) and cost $4.5 million dollars. Hunt based the design of the mansion on the chateaux of France's Loire Valley. It required twenty-seven house servants, eight grooms, and twelve gardeners. The house remained in the Goelet family until 1947 when Robert Goelet donated the mansion to the Sisters of Mercy. It is currently owned by Salve Regina University and used as their central administration building.
