Hunter House -- Liveable Grandeur
by Larry Bunce
Hunter House is one of the smaller mansions in Newport, but it is most attractive and built on a human scale. The Breakers was designed by a millionaire primarily to impress other millionaires. The main entrance to the Breakers is bigger than most county courthouses in the Midwest. Hunter house was built by a prosperous merchant as a house to live and entertain in. It was the only Newport mansion where I felt at home. Its elegance does not jump out at you, but the longer you look, the more there is to see. Great house. Click here to read or post comments. |
