The best answer would be A.
The entire excerpt describes the speaker's admiration of the structure, not just of its physical beauty but the history that came with it. This first part of the excerpt details the "recent rust".

The last part describes how the speaker is trying hard to imagine what the great house looked like when it was newly built --"early shine".
