This house next door to Lansdowne presents a lively contrast. The design is probably derived from George Barber's pattern books (1898–1907). An aggressive Queen Anne pile, the structure contains a variety of projections, chimneys, and roofs. The large porch has Tuscan columns. Although Jefferson and his builders loved the Tuscan order, it is doubtful that this detail is an homage to him.
