The building in the image is a magnificent example of Victorian architecture with elements of the Queen Anne style. The mansion is characterized by an asymmetrical and complex facade with several expressive turrets featuring conical roofs covered with gray shingles.
The facade of the house is clad with gray wooden shingles, creating a textured surface that contrasts with the white trim of the window frames and decorative elements. Particularly noteworthy are two round towers with conical spires, which give the building a romantic, almost fairy-tale appearance. The roof has a complex multi-gabled form with protruding dormer windows and decorative pediments.
The first floor is framed by a spacious porch with white columns and railings, which is typical of American architecture from the late 19th to early 20th century. The entrance to the house is accentuated by a small pediment. The windows are diverse in shape and size: from rectangular to arched, many of them with multi-pane glazing characteristic of the era.
The mansion is surrounded by a well-maintained landscape with ornamental Japanese maple shrubs that create a striking color contrast with the gray cladding of the house. The property is enclosed by a low stone wall made of roughly processed stone, which complements the overall picturesque composition.
This house is an excellent example of the architectural craftsmanship of its time, demonstrating attention to detail, high quality execution, and the pursuit of individuality so characteristic of the Victorian era.
