The Cochrane house - Beirut

A splendid and unique architectural and decorative treat

From the street there is little to indicate what sort of house could be hidden beyond sight of just a paved walkway and an old stone staircase leading to the first floor surrounded and dominated as it is by a chaotic mixture of new development created in the wake of the reconstruction of Beirut. For those fortunate enough to be invited to the home of Sir Marc and Lady Cochrane a splendid and unique architectural and decorative treat awaits.
