These photographs (very few, I know!) were featured in Architectural digest in 2003. The house was up for sale around April, 2009, for 30m US$. Located on Long Island Sound in Westport, Connecticut and owned by radio talk show host Don Imus and his wife, Deirdre. A stunning house with Gustavian style furniture.
New York-based architects John and Nancy Beringer employed a mix of styles for the exterior.
The entrance hall with a demilune table and bust, both 19th century.
For the parlor, the Louis XVI chair retains its original fabric. Reflected in the Swedish pine and ivory trumeau is a portrait of a gentleman from the Gustavian era.
Gustavian pieces in the parlor include an 18th-century daybed and tea table, which holds a 1790 urn.
