Description

Set in 1/25 acres of parklike grounds with mature trees and a long driveway to the rear for parking, Millbrook Country House is a classic colonial (c.1810) two-story clapboard house. The 4 guest rooms, each with private bath, are upstairs. Downstairs are large side-by-side parlors, with fireplaces and a Bose music system; our office/library; and formal dining room. (Owners' quarters and kitchen are beyond the dining room in an adjoined late-18th-century building.) Each guest room is decorated differently from the others, with fine Italian furniture and fabrics, artisan-made lamps, area rugs, and closets. Bed and bath linens are also Italian. Outside are flower gardens and broad lawns punctuated by tall evergreens, maple trees, and pines. A c.1875 Norway spruce shades the patio, where breakfast and afternoon tea are served in fine weather. The entire house is centrally heated and air-conditioned. The ambiance of MCH is one combining comfort and relaxation, with attention paid to guest services.
