Originally
designed by Prentice Sanger, the Bolton House,
set on 110 acres of rolling lawns, was occupied
by many distinguished visitors including presidents
and foreign dignitaries. Rare woods and fine
workmanship were combined in all its rooms.
The
scope of the project was to design the mansion
and its rooms for conferences, reception dinners
and lodging for guests, board members, and
high level executives of TRW in order to provide
a prestigious lodging facility with first-rate
guest rooms in close proximity to the TRW
World Headquarters.
The
exterior restoration included water blasting
and repainting the cedar siding, reflashing
and reguttering the eaves, removing and relaying
the slate roof tiles over new substrate and
repointing the brickwork.
