The steeply pitched roof comes well down over the first-story windows, 
and is broken by the distinctive casement dormers 
The ivy-covered stone end faces the street. At the left is the rear 
entrance, the front being secluded by the gateway 
Only the essential rooms are included in 
the first story, for the house is but 
25 x 40 feet 
From every view-point the house is pictur¬ 
esque and eminently homelike. For its 
size it is undoubtedly one of the most 
attractive bits of domestic architecture in 
America 
Abundant closet space is provided in 
the slope of the roof between the 
dormers 
“ PRINCESSGATE ” 
Joy Wheeler Dow, architect 
A view of “ Princessgate ” somewhat similar to that 
used as a cover on the Christmas number 
At the end of a row of hollyhocks 
stands the vine-grown iron gateway 
The wide eaves and the projection of one stone end 
containing the gateway shield the terrace
