The Countess' Mansion
« on: July 17, 2011, 18:49:53 »
As promised in another thread, here is my Victorian Mansion. Unfortunately I had to take out all the interiors to try some expansion ideas. I decided to have two separate houses, main one and a servant's one united by a terrace I will customize.
Here it is







So the main house from left to Right (not perfect yet, I'm still missing a bathroom and another bedroom)

Ground floor: Entrance hall, living room, piano and dinning room, patio, stairs, garden.
First floor: Hall, Thomas' Office, terrace
Second floor: Countess' bedroom
Attic: gradchildren's room and storage room (it will be divided)



Servants' house from left to right

Ground floor: Main kitchen, servants' living and dinning room.
Attic: bedroom.



Both houses will be connected by a terrace, there will be also a garage, a shed for garden stuff and a greenhouse. All this is a major project  that will take some time. I will be posting the developments as they occur as photostories.   :wave:

A good start, Gaston, and I look forward to seeing it develop further.

Love it  :inlove:

I'm keen to see how you will unite the two. And how you will furnish the rooms.
Have fun with it all!
