Architecture Wednesday: She Looks Good For Fifty!

Not a new home, this 2574 square foot beauty, located in Westchester County, New York, was designed by Roy Johnson in 1969.

And looks like it’s in a park, with the woods, and the lawns, and the pool with a waterfall. I love all the wood—it looks like a pagoda-style cabin—and the windows that flood the house with light.

Still, a nearly fifty-year-old house might be showing her age, but clearly the kitchen and baths have been redone and yet still suit the style of the home.

I might like to sip a nice Malbec on the terrace while Carlos does some grilling.

  1. I love everything about this house except for the fact it isn't mine. My house is a couple of years older, and is a bona fide dump next to this. I can just see myself standing on a little step to get into that bathtub! Sigh, I can also see myself being hoisted out of said tub by one or two hunky firemen coming to my rescue (I haven't been able to sit in a tub for years). I do love warm hard wood in a home.

  3. @ anne marie: You got that right! We trashed my carpet years ago and laid hard wood in just about every room! Hubby was pleased with the job and I was just tired. Nothing I say from now on will sound clean.

  4. This place screams winter home. And even better if the pool and waterfall were heated for winter swimming.
