The parlour was a striking room even by the standards of Penhallick House. The Morris paper on the walls held a dense pattern of leaves and clusters of flowers in red and blue and yellow, woven through with thorny tendrils studded with tinier flowers in startling white. It filled the walls in wide panels between dark, carved wood that stretched from the floor and formed arching ribs where it met the ceiling.

Wallpaper! 1923 Tudor in Sea Cliff, New York has 6bds, 6ba, and asks $2.35M. It will be a hard sell for that price unless someone REALLY loves their choices of wallpaper. Take a look at this pricey home and its decor.
The entrance was redone, b/c the wood was painted white. Not sure if the black tiles are original- maybe. But, I don't care for the stark white against the yellow paper.
The large sitting room is solid colored wallpaper to match the carpet. Why do solid paper? Just paint it.
The sunporch is nice- the pattern is in the draperies. It would look lovely with less stuff, less patterned fabric and plain white wicker furniture.
The den has a beautiful fireplace and wood paneling.
Sunken dining room. Not the wallpaper I would've picked.
The home office. It's hard to try and picture this place empty or furnished with your stuff. It's overwhelming.
The kitchen's not bad. It has a nice eat-in area, don't like the wallpaper, and don't forget that when they move out, there will be holes from all the stuff on the walls.
The primary bedroom. Yay, paint! Just what they invested in area rugs and runners alone is staggering. I wonder if the carpets convey.
Like this bathroom. The furniture is beautiful and I like the pink wallpaper.
This looks like a den or family room.
This secondary bedroom is very large.
Another nice bath. All the decor detracts from the beautiful furniture in the baths.
I like striped wallpaper, but not sure about red.
Looks like a guest room.
Dormitory style attic room.
Nice vintage looking bath.
Down in the finished basement. I'm a fan of toile, but not necessarily the red pattern.
Basement room.
Love the ivy-covered wall. The home is on a .90 acre lot.
