Here we see white snow with white birches with a white 19th century home – a stunning scene in yesterday’s bright sun. I’m not sure what, if any, architectural style this residence is. But, I’m told by Sharron Ellis, its owner, that it was built in 1899 and has been in her family ever since.
Based on some quick online research and a consultation with my architect and wife, Barbara, we’re thinking that the house may be styled as an American Four Square arts and crafts residence. However, it’s definitely not a 19th Century Sears Four Square kit, according to Sharron.
There’s a visual bonus today: the white house has a “very old” (date unknown) small workshop within the property’s tree line that Sharron also keeps up nicely. It also looks stunning in snow and brightnes:
