The Thomas Josephus Emery house, located at 386 Greenwood Ave. in Middletown, Rhode Island, is a stunning architectural masterpiece.

The house's exterior, with its intricate details and grandeur, is a testament to the opulence of the era. But the true beauty of Mariemont lies not just in its architecture, but in its breathtaking landscape.
