    The folk who arrange the furniture in these museum homes did a good job here! Looks ravishing inside.

    A really stunning house and garden that reminds me of our country house estates here in England. It must take an army of gardeners to clip all that box hedging!

    You can recognise some of the rooms from the Dynasty pilot and initial episodes. Looked like it had more panelling back then. Then the series recreated the house in a very scaled back and decorated fashion on film sets. And painted in pastel shades that would never have been used in the original house giving the sets a very particular 80’s vibe

    But I guess we will never know what those doors lead to in the famous stairway especially the one with the window that looks to lead to a deathly fall 😢😢
