Thanks for showcasing this austere but stunning house. It's loss is especially sad since it would have made a beautiful clubhouse for the country club. Best wishes for the new year.

That is a nice house! I've added your blog on my links now. I recommend people to visit it :)
What a great resource!
The columns of this home, according to The Long Islander newspaper, were hauled up Jericho Turnpike by four teams of horses. Mr. & Mrs. Mills planted fully-grown trees on the estate so that they would not have to wait to enjoy them.
