#5256. Elegant Victorian Mansion with Asymmetrical Façade and Corner Tower

The image showcases a magnificent example of early 20th century Victorian architecture, combining elements of Queen Anne and Colonial Revival styles. This two-story mansion features an asymmetrical façade with a characteristic polygonal corner tower on the left flank, crowned with a conical roof. The façade is executed in two materials: the lower floor is partially faced with terracotta-colored brick, while the second floor and mansard are clad in wooden siding in a subdued olive hue.

The complex roof configuration is covered with brown shingles and adorned with two symmetrical gables in the mansard section. The window openings are diverse in shape and size: semi-circular windows on the first floor are combined with rectangular ones on the second, while the mansard houses arched windows with decorative mullions. The window framing is done in a contrasting cream color, creating an expressive effect against the background of the main finish.

The entrance area is accentuated by a spacious open porch with Doric order columns supporting a small canopy. The front of the house features a well-maintained landscape garden with a variety of shrubs and flowering plants framing the path to the entrance. The overall composition of the façade demonstrates attention to detail, precise proportions, and decorative variety typical of its era.
