Description
The lovely blue on the window frame, the intricate wrought-Iron work of the grate, and the crown moulding trim above the window all emphasize the grace and beauty of the period of this home. Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. had designed Edward Bok's Gardens and several private gardens inside Mountain Lake Estates, a neighboring private community. Charles Austin Buck engaged Olmsted's firm to design the landscape of his winter estate. In 1929, landscape architect William Lyman Phillips of the Olmsted Brothers firm began to design the gardens and the placement of the house. In 1930, architect Charles Wait was hired to design the house that has become one of the finest examples of Mediterranean-style architecture in the state of Florida. The Estate was the result of the collaborative inspiration of Buck, Wait and Phillips.
