Stoneledge
This Georgian manor house is a tribute to the extensive historical research undertaken by the owners in order to replicate and expand upon architectural and design styles they considered appropriate for a home in the Virginia countryside. Inspired by Drayton Hall in Charleston, S.C.. and Gunston Hall in Fairfax County', Va, StoneLedge, though completed in 2005, feels much older: 150year-old beams reclaimed from a mid- 19th century' Pennsylvania inn are found in the kitchen; the plaster mantel and over-mantel in the great hall are based on the designs of 17th century English architect Inigo Jones: extensive plaster details in the great hall and dining room are of the Corinthian order, several wood pieces and reproduction chairs and tables were made by a wood worker who specializes in using 150250 year-old wood and milk paint: and the ceilings throughout the first floor are 12 feet. Use of scrumptious fabrics and restful colors serves to achieve a casual feeling of elegance while complementing the architectural elements and extensive collection of French and English antiques.
