Two-story frame Victorian house with a metal-sheathed hip roof with a front gable with a reworked diamond-shaped louvered gable vent. The one-story front porch has classical wood columns. Other features include a brick foundation and interior chimney, a modern concrete 4nd metal handicap ramp, a front entry with modern sidelights, modern 6/6 windows, and a two-story tear wing with a roof-top deck. Botetourt County native T. E. Nininger was an orchardist who moved |to the St. Augustine area of Florida to establish an orange grove. When a freeze destroyed his operation he relocated to Waynesboro and acquired an apple orchard. He was also the inventor of a frit sorter. The house was occupied by A. S. Coiner in 1935.
