The Stately Post house decked out in winter garb.

 

 

 

Here we see the decorative half-timbering and carved barge boards on the gables.

 

Behind the house, the property extended all the way to 20th Street.  The Posts designed a formal English-style garden with sculpted boxwood designs, statuary, and fountains.

 

In this photo, Elizabeth Post and daughter Eleanor tend the knot garden.

This view of the back of the house shows the arched cloister, terrace, and garden.
