The image showcases a magnificent mansion in the Italian Villa Victorian style, which was popular in the United States during the second half of the 19th century. The facade is finished in light tones, featuring a characteristic asymmetrical composition and a belvedere tower crowned with a mansard roof with decorative railings.
The architectural details of the facade demonstrate richness and sophistication: arched windows on the first floor with delicate framing, more austere rectangular windows on the upper level, and an expressive cornice with decorative brackets along the perimeter of the building. Particularly noteworthy are the round porthole windows in the tower, adding a romantic maritime motif to the building.
The facade is adorned with elegant pilasters and fine moldings that create an interplay of light and shadow. A columned veranda on the first floor frames the entrance group, emphasizing the welcoming character of the building. Despite its impressive size, the mansion looks elegant and harmoniously fits into the surrounding landscape thanks to the well-maintained garden with trimmed shrubs framing the base of the building.
