Luckily, GW posted this article back in 2012, which seems to confirm that the William Mead house was nearly complete in 1913:

Thanks Hoss, I thought so. Yes, I'd seen the interior shots. No explaining bad taste. Of course, the house has passed through several sets of hands over the years and at least one major fire that pretty much destroyed 8 or 10 of the interior rooms. Lots of opportunity for 'redecorating'. Ugh.
