Cliff House, and Cliff Offices have served the Royal Family for nearly 120 years
The home of His Imperial Majesty, William II Ananto and Her Highness, the Princess Consort Casey Leigh-Campbell, officially titled The Imperial Residence at Wilson Beach, but more commonly known as Cliff House, is due for renovation. The home, officially located in the Barony of Wilson at the far southwestern tip of Kaliburg, will be thoroughly refurbished and updates to take advantage of modern efficiencies. The renovations will begin in April and will carry on, weather permitting, as late into the year as possible.
"With a growing family, the Emperor and Consort need to convert some guest rooms into actual bedrooms for the children," said Her Highness, Princess Jennifer Ananto-Rosenfeld, in her role as Head of House Ananto. "The family has also decided to downsize the kitchen and dining room, and improve the staff Quarters, which are located on the property. Over all the Mansion will be reconfigured to accommodate the family in comfort, to allow the Emperor and Consort to host multiple guests in East Wing, and to continue to serve the Anantos for the next six generations."
A new power generation unit will be constructed down the road near the Staff Quarters which will feature solar and wind generators, Wilson Beach will be expanded to permit the family a private swimming and sunbathing beach and the system of trails on the lower slopes will be improved and expanded between Cliff House and Wilson Bridge. Wilson Hill will remain undeveloped and open to residents of the Capital for outdoor recreation, but public access to Cliff House will remain limited.
"The Emperor has opted not to renovate Cliff Offices," said the Princess. "The offices still serve him well as his personal office, as well as the offices of his Personal Assistant and Secretary. The Princess Consort's personal staff is also located at Cliff Offices, and the Chancellor of the Empire also maintains an office in Cliff Offices. These offices may be remodeled at some future date, but for now they will remain in tact." The Princess said the Royal Family will take up residence at Ananto Estate in Eveari until the remodeling is finished. "His Imperial Majesty and Her Majesty the Princess Consort are expected back from Athosia this week and will proceed directly to Eveari rather than coming home. They will have access to all personal belongings during the remodeling and the Emperor will still schedule to work in Kaliburg three days a week, while taking office space in Eveari for the other two."
The Princess said that the Royal Family is excited about the renovations. "The home is almost an historic monument by now," said Princess Jennifer Ananto-Rosenfeld. "It was salvaged by the His Imperial Majesty, Fredrick III Ananto, who was Empress Mary's father. Before he owned it, it had been abandoned by the previous owner when the Emperor purchased the hill to preserve as a park, and it was one of the few homes on the hill that was not demolished during the transition. It survived the chemical attacks in Kaliburg, while Wilson House, the previous Royal Residence did not, and so the Emperor rehabilitated this house, made it a home for his family, and moved in in 5620. Four Sovereigns of Ananto and Kalistan have been raised in this house, and it is the house I myself also called home. And now with the Emperor and Princess Consort's children living here it will eventually become the home of yet another Ananto Empress in time."
The renovations are expected to be completed by mid 5740, at which point, the Emperor and Princess Consort, along with the Minor Princelings will return to Kaliburg to their new home which is designed to accommodate their larger family. "Its our home that this house continues to serve our family for many more generations to come. To do that, of course, the home requires regular maintenance and periodic remodeling, to better suit the needs and tastes of its occupants." The Princess said that the renovations are expected to cost the Royal House more than K$2 Million Imperial Pesos.
