Martine Inn, Pacific Grove, California
This gracious palace that sits high on the cliffs of Pacific Grove overlooking the rocky coastline of the Monterey Bay, was built in 1899. In 1901 Laura and James Parke, of Parke Davis Pharmaceuticals, purchased it for their family home. Laura is remembered as a reigning regal lady who entertained many dignitaries in this beautiful home. The house was originally a true Victorian with a cupola, dormers and grape arbors.
After the completion of the building restoration, Don researched authentic Victorian wall coverings and paint colors to complete the luxurious interior design. Each room is entirely different in color, wall covering, fabrics, and furniture design.
Furnishings have been carefully selected for each room to fit the style, size and ambiance of that room. Most of the furnishings are museum quality with preference for American antiques from 1800 through 1890.
