For your consideration is a nice stereoview identified on the verso as "Twin Cottage, Highlands". This is a great image looking from a distance at the front of the building. Note the people on the porch and the two men sitting under the tree. The photographer is unidentified. There is overall light soiling. Please view the scans carefully and contact me with any questions.

From the Vineyard Gazette:

"Twin Cottage, completed by sea Capt. J.S. Atwood for his two daughters, once enjoyed sweeping views of Vineyard Sound, though the house is stands 500 yards away from shore. A stand of 40-foot pines, oaks and cedars now block any water view from this Elliot Place address. An almost haunting blend of Queen Anne and Gothic architecture, the home was one of the first to join the Highlands, an 1869 outgrowth of the Camp Ground. The Highlands became a haven for the growing number of Baptists summering in the Methodist stronghold."
