The image showcases a magnificent example of American Colonial architecture—a two-story residential house in a light yellow (sandy) color with characteristic elements of classical style. The façade is clad in horizontal siding in a pastel shade, giving the house an elegant and well-maintained appearance.
The decorative elements of the façade are particularly noteworthy. Contrasting dark blue shutters frame rectangular windows with traditional latticed panes. Along the upper edge of the roof and along the porches runs an exquisite carved trim in the form of an openwork frieze in white, creating the effect of lace framing. Two symmetrical brick chimneys crown the gabled roof, emphasizing the classic geometry of the structure.
The façade features a well-balanced symmetry of the main volume with an entrance portico characteristic of the Federal style, adorned with white columns and decorative carvings. The side wing with its own porch organically complements the composition without disrupting the overall harmony. Porches with white carved supports and balustrades give the building lightness and create a transitional zone between the interior and the surrounding landscape.
The well-maintained grounds with neatly trimmed shrubs, blooming peonies, and a level lawn frame the house, highlighting its architectural dignity and creating a cohesive ensemble of a classic American estate.
