From jet to dream house: Inside touches

This fuselage section, whose windows once framed views of clouds, will serve as a passthrough from the kitchen to an office (one window will swing open).

One of the engine housings will grace a water feature in the main courtyard.

And a first-class stairway will provide access to a bank of storage cabinets between the library/media room and a guest room.
