The Senator's Suite 
Senators Suite

The Senator’s Suite  (Suite 200) is a two bedroom suite located on the second floor with a living area which has a pullout sofa bed. 

NOTE : THIS IS ON THE SECOND FLOOR AND THERE IS NOT AN ELEVATOR

This two-bedroom suite is divided by beautiful historic gliding pocket doors to close off a Queen Size Bed with fireplace from the living room.

 

The second bedroom on the other side of the living room has another Queen Size bed and a patio door going out to its own portion of the deck/balcony with garden and river/shipping view.

The bathroom has a modern bath/shower tub.  The 2'nd floor patio/deck has a  propane BBQ (shared with the Canadiana suite) and its own bistro set with a view of river, Seaway traffic and garden.

It has two thermostatically controlled fireplaces... one in each bedroom for both ambience and heating.

The main bedroom was originally the living room and what is now the living room was the formal dining room. These two rooms are separated by a pair of massive pocket doors which roll back into the separating wall cavity.  In the Judges time the family and guests would assemble in the living room using the living room doors from the hallway.  The pocket doors would be closed thereby hiding the servants setting the table and preparing the dinner using the hallway doors into the dining room.  At the appointed hour the servants would roll open the massive doors to much fanfare one assumes.

Once the meal was over the pocket doors would be closed and the family and the guests would retire to the living room for port and sherry.  The men would probably gradually sneak downstairs to The Judges Chambers to discuss the affairs of the day and enjoy cigars and man talk. The servants could then clear away the aftermath and reset the tables for the next repast.

On the hallway side of what is now the living room (the former dining room) is a ornate semicircular closet/portico with a glass door. I moved it from the opposite wall as originally it was a table linens closet recessed into the exterior stone wall of the building which is usually 24 inches thick (consisting of an inner wall, outer wall and the rubble stone tossed in between). It was hollowed out 12 inches for the shelving for the linen.
