Raibhurari yemapuranga yakashongedzwa zvakapfuma yeimba yenhoroondo ndeimwe yemakamuri ayo akanaka kwazvo.Madziro akajeka ane bhuruu, makasi emabhuku akavakirwa mukati, moto unopisa, uye kapeti inoshamisa inosimudza kamuri, hapana nzvimbo iri nani yekupeta nebhuku rakanaka.
Kutaura nezve hunhu pasi, iyi yekugara yekugara inogona kushandiswa senzvimbo yekuzorodza mushure mezuva refu kana seimba yekudyira yekudya kwemazuva ese.Iine mahwindo epasi-kudenga akatarisana nebindu kunze uye anotsvedza magonhi egirazi anoenda kunze kune Conservatory, maVanderbilts pasina mubvunzo achanakidzwa nekudya kwakawanda manheru echirimo.
Iyo kicheni yakagadziridzwa yakapamhama uye inopenya, iine magadzirirwo zvinhu zvinosvibisa mitsetse pakati pechinyakare neazvino.Kubva pamidziyo yemhando yepamusoro kusvika kune yakapamhama worktops, madziro ezvidhinha akafumurwa uye yakanakisa nguva fenicha, iyi gourmet kicheni yakakodzera kune ane mukurumbira chef.
Ikicheni inovhura mune yakanaka butler pantry ine rima makabati ehuni, kunyura kaviri uye chigaro chehwindo kwaunogona kunakidzwa nekuona zvinofema kwenzvimbo.Zvinoshamisa kuti pantry yakakura kudarika kicheni pachayo, maererano nemutengesi.

Kana iwe ukabatanidza makamuri ose evashandi muimba, nhamba yemakamuri ekurara inokwira kusvika kune inoshamisa 47. Zvisinei, 18 chete yakagadzirira kugamuchira vaenzi.Iyi ndiyo imwe yemifananidzo mishoma yatinayo, asi zviri pachena kuti kushanda nesimba kwaRobert kwakabhadhara.Kubva pamoto unoyevedza uye fenicha kusvika kune anoyevedza hwindo marapirwo, kudzoreredza kwacho kwakagadzirwa zvine hungwaru, ichiwedzera kubata kwekureruka kwemazuva ano kukamuri yega yega.
Imba yekurara iyi inogona kunge iri nzvimbo tsvene yaEmily, izere newadhiropu yakakura yekufamba-famba uye nzvimbo yekugara kwaunogona kuzorora pamusoro pekofi yako yemangwanani.Isu tinofunga kuti kunyange vanozivikanwa vachafadzwa newadhiropu iyi, nekuda kwemadziro ayo nenzvimbo yekuchengetera, madhirowa uye niches shangu.
Imba iyi ine dzimba dzekugezera makumi maviri nenhatu, mazhinji acho anoita seasina kusimba.Iyi ine all-cream palette ine midziyo yekare yendarira uye tabhu yakavakirwa-mukati.Panoratidzika kunge kune mamwe makamuri gumi nemashanu ekurara uye anokwana gumi nemaviri ekugezera mubapiro rekare reimba yakasarudzika, ese ari kuda kugadziridzwa.
Kune imwezve nhanho, isinganyanyi kutsvinda pane yekumberi masitepisi ari pakati pemba, akaiswa kumashure kweimba padivi pekicheni.Masitepisi maviri aive akajairwa mukugadzira imba huru sezvo aibvumira vashandi nevamwe vashandi kufamba pakati peuriri vasingaonekwe.
Iyo chivakwa zvakare ine hombe yepasi iyo yakamirirawo kudzoserwa kune yaimbova mbiri.Yaigona kunge iri nzvimbo iyo vashandi vaigona kuungana panguva dzekuchinja kwavo kana kuchengeta chikafu newaini yemapati anoshamisira emhuri yeVanderbilt.Iye zvino zvishoma zvisinganzwisisike, nzvimbo yakasiiwa ine madziro ari kuputsika, uriri hwakafukidzwa nemarara, uye zvimiro zvakafumuka.
Uchibuda panze, uchaona patsangadzi yakakura, madziva emaruva, matanda, minda yakavhurika, magadheni ane madziro, uye zvivakwa zvenhoroondo zveupenzi zvakagadzirirwa neAmerican's great landscape architecture icon, Frederick Law Orme.Yakagadziriswa naFrederick Law Olmsted.Mubasa rake rose rine mukurumbira, Olmsted akashanda kuNiagara Falls State Park, Mount Royal Park muMontreal, uye yekutanga Biltmore Estate muAsheville, North Carolina, pakati pevamwe.Nekudaro, Central Park yeNew York inoramba iri chisikwa chake chakakurumbira.
