#218. Magnificent Victorian mansion with rich brick facade and distinctive circular veranda

Before us is an outstanding example of late Victorian architecture, presumably built in the late 19th century. This magnificent brick building demonstrates the richness of decorative elements and attention to detail characteristic of the era. The main facade is made of reddish-brown brick with contrasting light elements, creating an exquisite rhythmic pattern.

Particular attention is drawn to the circular veranda with columns and a distinctive dome-shaped roof with a greenish patina, which serves as the architectural dominant of the lower tier. The upper part of the building is adorned with impressive chimneys with decorative brick stacks that are not only functional but also an important element of the house's silhouette.

The complex configuration roof is made of slate tiles and complemented by copper elements with a greenish patina, which gives the building special elegance. Vertical proportions are emphasized by tall windows and expressive chimneys. Facade design at this level of detail requires a deep understanding of historical styles and skill in combining materials.

In modern private construction, several techniques can be borrowed from this historical example: the use of contrasting materials to highlight architectural elements, thoughtful asymmetry of composition that still maintains visual balance, and attention to finishing details of the roof and chimneys that form the recognizable silhouette of the building.
