#5228. Snow-white neoclassical facade with a semicircular columned portico

The photograph showcases a magnificent example of American Colonial architecture with neoclassical influences. This spacious two-story mansion, executed in white, features characteristic classical elements. The facade displays symmetry and elegance, typical of this architectural style.

A particularly expressive detail is the massive semicircular porch with a colonnade in Corinthian style, supporting an elegant second-floor balcony. The white columns create a striking contrast with the red brick chimney that rises above the pitched roof. The pediment is adorned with decorative elements and cornices, giving the building a special refinement.

The balustrade on the second floor is executed with meticulous attention to detail and repeats the architectural theme established by the lower tier of the house. The mansard roof with dormers adds volume and functionality to the upper floor.

The surrounding landscape harmoniously complements the architecture: neatly trimmed shrubs, a metal fence, and mulch groundcover create a clear boundary of the private territory. An American flag on the facade emphasizes the national character of the building. All exterior elements—proportions, details, materials—indicate high craftsmanship and adherence to classical architectural traditions.
