Before us stands a magnificent example of late 19th-century Victorian architecture, presumably built in the Queen Anne style. The building is an imposing two-story mansion with a characteristic asymmetrical composition and rich decorative elements.
The facade of the house is clad with wooden siding of two types: the main part is executed in a light shade, while part of the veranda is painted in a warm orange color, creating an interesting contrast effect. The roof has a complex shape with multiple gables adorned with decorative elements in the form of radial stripes in the upper part — a typical solution for this architectural style.
Particularly noteworthy is the spacious veranda with a colonnade that wraps around a significant portion of the first floor. The veranda is equipped with decorative railings with balusters and an ornate lattice at the lower part. The elegant proportions of the columns with simple capitals support the sloped roof of the veranda, creating a smooth transition between the house and the surrounding area.
The window openings of the second floor are adorned with a semicircular arched window in the center, adding sophistication to the facade. Black decorative elements on the gables and window frames create graphical interest and emphasize the architectural details. The brick chimney effectively protrudes against the background of the roof, adding a vertical accent to the overall composition.
The building is set on an open plot with minimalist landscaping, allowing full appreciation of its majestic architecture and richness of textures that create a play of light and shadow on the facade.
