The photograph showcases an excellent example of Victorian architecture in the Gothic Revival style. This two-story brick mansion features a symmetrical facade with characteristic pointed elements. The main building material is red brick, which contrasts beautifully with white decorative elements and light-colored stone inserts at the corners and around the windows.
The building's facade is adorned with exquisite openwork wooden decorations (commonly known as "gingerbread" ornamentation), which are particularly expressive on the roof gables and the veranda. The pointed spires on the gables give the building an upward aspiration — a typical feature of Neo-Gothic design. The roof is gabled and covered with dark shingles or tiles.
Of particular note is the veranda with skillfully executed carved details, supported by slender columns. This element creates a transitional space between interior and exterior, characteristic of 19th-century residential architecture. The window openings are arched with decorative framing. A brick chimney completes the composition.
The building is surrounded by black wrought iron fencing and sits on an elevation with stone steps, emphasizing its status. In the background, a modern high-rise building is visible, creating an interesting contrast between historical heritage and contemporary urban development.
