The Study Is a Classic Structure in White with a Green Door, Green

in the future has not yet been attempted, while the present 

 natural condition is one of real beauty and deepest interest. 

 Almost everywhere are special developments, special groups 

 of trees, vistas of various kinds leading to definite points or 

 ending in some object of interest. But whatever has been 

 done has been well done. No former beauty has been marred 

 that some new beauty be created; no point of interest changed 

 that something else be substituted for it. Everything that 

 is good and fine has been left as it was and will be left, the 

 changes looking only for the betterment and the enhancing of 

 the natural beauties of this fine old place. 



Words are but poor vehicles with which to describe this 

 lovely place; nor are photographs much better. The latter 

 do, indeed, give true impression of particular objects, of the 

 house and its rooms, of groups of trees and glimpses of 

 natural beauty; but to appreciate its loveliness as a whole 

 the place must be seen, for only in this way can the whole 

 of it be appreciated as it should. This is no estate 

 whose salient features are to be comprehended within a 

 single sweep of the eye, much as the merest glance may 

 tell; but it is a property to be lost in — and it is almost large 

 enough for that.
