進入威洛銀行的繁茂莊園,令人感覺仿佛來到了另一個時代——一個宏偉和聲望的時代。這座莊園是黃金海岸和美國黃金時代的典範。人們可以想像,自從莊園建立以來,曾經有許多受尊敬的客人踏上這條鋪滿花崗岩卵石的進院走道。
這座房屋建於1920年,採用殖民復興風格,其主立面的對稱構圖、雙煙囪以及房屋的精確比例均得以體現。早期1900年的著名建築師布拉德利·德利漢提受財務家弗朗西斯·戈登·布朗三世的委託,為這座優雅的家居設計。
房屋的原始部分是一座改良的中心大廳殖民式建築,中央的盤旋樓梯成為了入口大廳的中心。客廳保留了原始的牙冠雕刻。原始的高面板松木牆板、壁爐周圍的木工以及餐廳的牙冠雕刻在百年中也得到了悉心維護。陽光普照的西向家庭房擁有雕刻的自然綠色石材壁爐、拱門和帶有複雜弧度包邊的定制集成木工。相鄰的日光房設有凹槽木板天花板、天然石材膝牆,以及過渡為庭院踏石的天然劈開石板鋪地。
2000年代初期的擴建將這座房屋引入現代,創造了一個寬敞的廚房,供烹飪和款待客人使用,還有廚房餐廳、書房、研究室、大廳以及一個可俯瞰庭院的按摩室。這個擴建巧妙地圍繞著一個郁郁蔥蔥的庭院,提供充足的自然光線和幾乎每個室內視角的園景。擴建的南翼位於庭院和游泳池之間,實現了室內外空間的自然流動。
法國鄉村風格的廚房配備頂級家電、覆蓋式櫃門和天然白色卡拉拉大理石檯面,以及相匹配的板材背板。天花板則用了凹槽木板和裝飾條。相鄰的廚房餐廳擁有羅馬托斯卡納式的柱子、上釉法式門、法國鄉村風格的壁紙,並以日光充足的八角形拱頂天花板和銅頂圓頂為頂飾。雙面壁爐則在廚房餐廳和書房之間提供了視覺上的聯繫。即使是在書房,每一個細節也都不被忽略,書房擁有帶有v型凹槽面板的天花板,展現過渡風格的外觀。
在威洛銀行,人們可以想像自己享受這座莊園的廣闊土地:無論是在私家花園中漫步,或者在池塘畔反思,穿過玫瑰藤架,或在蔚藍色石板鋪成的游泳池邊休憩。威洛銀行確實是一顆無與倫比的珍寶。
Upon entering the lush estate of Willow Bank, one feels as though they have arrived in another time — a time of grandeur and prestige. The Estate stands as an exemplar of the Gold Coast and the Golden Age of America. One can imagine the many distinguished guests who have arrived in the granite cobblestone-lined drive court since its inception.
The house was built in 1920 in the Colonial Revival style, as portrayed in the symmetrical composition of the main facade, the twin chimneys, and the measured proportions of the home. Renowned architect of the early 1900's, Bradley Delehanty, was engaged by financier Francis Gordon Brown III to design this elegant home.
The original portion of the home is a modified Center Hall Colonial, with a central winding staircase that anchors the entry foyer. The living room maintains its original dentil crown molding. The original raised-panel pine wall paneling, woodwork around the fireplace, and dentil crown moldings in the dining room have likewise been meticulously maintained over the course of a century. The sun-drenched west-facing family room has a carved natural verde stone mantel, arched doorways and custom integrated millwork with intricate radiused casings. An adjacent sunroom features beadboard ceilings, natural stone knee walls, and natural cleft-finish stone slab pavers transitioning into stepping stones in the courtyard.
An extensive addition built in the early 2000's ushered the home into modern day: creating a spacious kitchen for cooking and entertaining guests, kitchen dining room, den, study, great room, as well as a massage room with a panoptic view of the grounds. The extension cleverly encircles a lush courtyard, providing ample natural light and views into the garden from nearly every vantage point inside the home. The southern wing of the extension is situated between the courtyard and the swimming pool, allowing a natural flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The French provincial kitchen features top-line appliances, overlay cabinet doors and natural white Carrara countertops with matching slab backsplash. The ceiling is articulated with beadboard and trim. An adjacent kitchen dining room features Roman Tuscan-style columns, glazed French doors, French provincial wall coverings, and is crowned with a daylight-filled octagonal cathedral ceiling and copper-topped cupola. A double-sided fireplace offers a visual connection between the kitchen dining room and the den. No detail is spared even in the study, which features coffered ceilings with v-groove paneling for a transitional look.
At Willow Bank, one can imagine oneself enjoying the sweeping grounds of the Estate: whether walking through the private garden, taking reflection at the pond, stepping through the rose trellis, or lounging in the azure bluestone-stepped pool. Willow Bank is truly a gem with few equals. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
