Before us stands an excellent example of Victorian architecture in the Second Empire style. This red brick mansion features a distinctive mansard roof with characteristic dormer windows (lucarne) designed as pediments with arched tops. The gray slate roof with its decorative pattern creates a harmonious contrast with the rich brick facade.
The building's facade demonstrates impeccable symmetry and rich decorative elements. Particularly impressive is the white wooden ornamentation that creates an exquisite framing: cornices with brackets, window casings, and an elegant porch with columns. The windows on the first and second floors have arched tops – a typical element for this architectural style. The central entrance is accentuated by a double white door and a symmetrical porch with an awning.
A tall brick chimney complements the silhouette of the building, emphasizing its verticality. The well-maintained landscape with a low decorative fence, benches on the porch, and a neat lawn creates a harmonious setting for this historic mansion, showcasing the architectural luxury of American country architecture from the second half of the 19th century.
