It was an era of opulence, a time in American history known as the Gilded Age. This was when George Washington Vanderbilt created a home like no other—a chateau nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. With four acres of floor space, 250 rooms including 35 master bedrooms, 43 bedrooms, 65 fireplaces, even a bowling alley and indoor swimming pool, Biltmore House remains the largest private residence in the United States.
