The Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast
|
|
When we added the third floor rooms, converting
the attic space to two additional guestroooms, along with an
area that houses the air-conditioning equipment for the top two
levels, we thought that these would be "overflow" rooms. But
frequently these rooms are chosen first before the others. It
is very quiet up here, since there are not guests passing
through going to their rooms like on the first and second
floors, and this is the only area in The Lighthouse that has
wall-to-wall carpet. The East Room features an antique high back oak queen bed that came from a local family estate and makes this oak-decorated room delightful. The bed is also high off the floor and there is a little step stool on one side of the bed. The room has "reverse" window seats, which look out eastward over the front lawn and the large pecan trees, on either side of the bed. An adjoining private bath with tub/shower completes this very private bedroom. |
 As you enter the East Room from the third floor hall, you can see the love seat next to the knee wall. There is also a desk along this same wall. And beyond the desk is one of the two "reverse window seats" that are found in each of the third story rooms. These became necessary when we added the stronger floor joists and at the same time made room for the air conditioning ducts to both this third floor and the ceilings of the second floor rooms. |
 The tall bed is flanked on either side by the original windows that made up the exterior architecture of this old Queen Anne home, while behind the headboard is a view of the shelf that was created out of the cavity where the exterior fish scale shingled gable protrudes. Inside the room there are step-downs at the windows. |
