The embassy house is a spacious, brick, Richardsonian-style house, featuring a massive hip roof, prominent chimneys and a distinctive round corner tower built in 1888.[2] The house was designed and built by Charles and Samuel Edmonston for Susan Shields, the widow of a wealthy newspaper publisher.[2] The house used to be the home of American Vice President James S. Sherman, the 27th Vice President of the United States.[3] Outside the house stands a smaller version of the Golden Warrior Monument which celebrates Kazakhstan's independence.
