#5266. Corner Tudor-style half-timbered mansion with a contrasting facade and decorative elements

Before us stands an expressive example of Tudor architecture embodied in this corner building. The facade displays a classic half-timbered style with characteristic contrasting finishes: dark wooden frame elements stand out dramatically against the light plastered wall surfaces. The asymmetrical composition of the building is complemented by a steep gabled roof with decorative chimneys and ventilation turrets that add additional expressiveness to the silhouette.

The facade is rich in architectural details: numerous bay windows with flower boxes, decorative carvings on wooden elements, and windows with small panes. Of particular note is the corner entrance with an overhang, accentuated by elegant woodwork. The second floor partially projects over the first, creating the traditional overhang effect of Tudor architecture, which enhances the play of light and shadow on the facade.

The building is harmoniously integrated into the urban environment and surrounded by a well-maintained landscape: trimmed shrubs and hedges emphasize its architectural value. The light-colored neighboring buildings create a contrasting background that advantageously highlights the half-timbered style of the main structure. The presence of street infrastructure elements (the Locust street sign) suggests that this is likely an important architectural element in the historic district of the city.
