Eclectic Home Tour – Friendship Manor
I stumbled across Friendship Manor on Instagram and fell instantly in love with this 1928 Georgian home filled with original details mixed with eclectic style.
“Walk through our home, and it’s a curious mix of artifacts gathered from global travels, family heirlooms, and antique store finds. From the vintage band of Mexican skeletons above our bed, to the 1965 opera poster in the foyer, to the cake plate collection in the butler’s pantry, it’s a marriage that transcends the constraints of classic styles. It’s a gallery, but you can touch things” says Daniela.

I love the grand entry with original leaded glass.
A huge antique opera sign makes a fun first impression.
A colorful collection of African masks are a fun conversation piece.
Every grand mansion needs a grand piano.
A timeworn rug pairs perfectly with a pair of modern red chairs.
Four arched bookcases get a jolt of color.
The kitchen isn’t original to the house and there are plans to renovate.
Cake stands and cookbooks fill the butler’s pantry.
Cocktails anyone?
“Because who wouldn’t want to wake up to a happy skeleton band?” says Daniela of her vintage Mexican skeletons.
Original to the house, the ombre green tiled bathroom comes complete with it’s own laundry chute behind those doors.
Every old mansion needs a flamingo filled pool!

I can’t even find the words to describe how much I love this home. The way they’ve mixed the old with the new is extrodinary. Thank you Kelly for bringing us such a great home tour !
So glad you like this – it’s definitely a stunner!
Wow! I’m loving the personality this home has!! Even the kitchen! It’s not your cookie cutter mini mansion of today and there is much to enjoy in this home! The doorway is similar to the doorways in Naval housing near Annapolis, which unfortunately due to asbestos in the basement were torn down and discarded… Heart wrenching! So it is heartwarming to see this surround intact. Thanks for the post, always a pleasure to read.
So sad to see old homes lose their original appeal. Agree – this is a stunner and she’s renovating it to keep it’s unique character
