#3682. Classic Victorian Second Empire Façade with Mansard Roof

This magnificent example of Second Empire architecture features a three-story mansion with the characteristic mansard roof. The façade of the building displays symmetrically arranged window openings with decorative casings, typical for this architectural style.

The massive mansard level deserves special attention with its decorative slate tile roofing and elegant dormer windows. The lower part of the façade is covered with light-colored siding and adorned with skillful wooden carvings beneath the cornices.

The front porch is supported by columns with decorative capitals, while the veranda itself is framed with elegant balustrades. The mansion demonstrates the decorative approach to architecture characteristic of the Victorian era, featuring an abundance of ornamental elements.

The house is surrounded by carefully planned landscaping with abundant flower beds, which further emphasizes its historical value and architectural significance. The color palette of the façade, combining a cream main tone with a dark roof and accent elements, perfectly conveys the aesthetics of the period.
