The HOME 
of DEVEREUX 
MILBURN, 
WESTBURY, L. I. 
PEABODY, WILSON 
& BROWN, Architects 
Before the house runs a broad 
terrace—a stretch of lawn, then 
a bricked path close to the wall 
and leading to the pergola. 
This gives gradual approach to 
the house and helps make the 
house a part of its setting. 
Vines and transplanted trees 
soften the lines and complete 
the unification 
Round brick pillars set on stone 
bases are an unusual detail of 
the pergola. Overhead the 
beams are rough hewn. The 
contrasts between white painted 
brick and rude timbers, be¬ 
tween the solid superstructure 
and the low growth of green 
things, give the garden unique 
charm
