Architect's own house; an article in the 09/11/1963 issue of the Seattle Times by Dorothy Brant Brazier recalled of the Tudor Revival Farnsworth House: "Photographs of a beautiful old Seattle homes with an accompanying description, in a national magazine, stirred some memories among old-timers here. The house is the old Clare Farnsworth home, restored to its original beauty--and, incidentally, saved from spending its old age as a boarding house--by Roland Terry. Mr. Terry, an architect known for his designs of contemporary homes, has both his home and office in the house." (See Dorothy Brant Brazier, "Joseph Cote Left Mark on Seattle," Seattle Times, 09/11/1963, p. 19.)
