Bedroom 327

South Bedroom

This is a large bedroom on the third floor of the White House. It is a mini-suite, with its own bathroom around the corner from the entrance. A small closet is accessible through a hidden door on the east wall.

In the Kennedy era, this was the "Pineapple Bedroom," so-named for the pineapple finials on the two matching beds that dated to the mid-1800s. The walls were covered in green Japanese silk wallpaper. Draperies and bedcovers were made of green and blue chintz, while the floor was covered with the blue Queen's Bedroom old carpeting, which was specially dyed for the purpose. The room next door was the "Pineapple Sitting Room."
