 estate (manor / mansion land), LIGC - Long Island Gold Coast, historical layer / disappeared object

Georgian 13,000sft residence c. 1937 by William Lawrence Bottomley for Richard Trimble, II. Trimble was a member of Shearson, Hammill & Cook, a stock brokerage firm. The home was likely built on land owned by the Loew family as a wedding gift when he married Forence Loew, daughter of William Goadby Loew. The exterior is of a red brick designed in the symmetrical floorplan with a grand Georgian portico entry ornamented with a tympanum. The interior was treated with 16' ceilings, wood paneling in many of the principal rooms, and stained glass windows. One of the sitting rooms was decorated with a handpainted mural of the back yard of the estate by an unknown artist.

After being put on the market, the estate was demolished in 2017.
