Glancing at this home one conjures up the vision of green lawns, a quaint sundial, flagstones scattered across the lawn, a background of foliage and a glimpse of the blue waters of a lake. From the gateway, a delightful view of the home may be obtained. The irregular texture brick base, the sandcoloured walling broken here and there with interesting and haphazard clusters of brickwork, the quaint and picturesque chimneys, and the shingletiled roofing with sloped gable terminals, together with the irregular windows and the board window shutters painted in a dark brown, will appeal to the eye with its pleasing harmony of colour.
