The residence of Walter M. 
Schwartz is a type of modern do¬ 
mestic architecture that combines 
the quiet and hospitable formality 
of the Georgian period with the 
freedom and latitude of design more 
prevalent in earlier periods. This 
view shows the southern exposure 
and library bay window at the 
nearer end 
As the house is located on a hill top 
it is so placed as to give every liv¬ 
ing room a view of the garden and 
the southern exposure. All these 
rooms open onto the flagstone ter¬ 
race and garden. The library is 
quite isolated. A service yard wall 
ties the garage to the house group 
When the season is hot and pro¬ 
tection from the sun is desirable, 
brilliant colored awnings are swung 
out over a part of the terrace, 
thus enclosing an outside living 
room. The terrace extends to 
the dining room and its porch. 
Rounded-top doors and low win¬ 
dows under the eaves are a feature 
of this facade
