From the National Register nomination
Two-story single-family dwelling of frame construction with aluminum siding over the original novelty weatherboards, which are visible on the house wall under the porch. Set on a parged masonry foundation, the house features an asphalt-shingled gable roof, a brick flue, a single-leaf wood multi-light door, 1/1 double-hung wood sash, and a one-story, three-bay porch with square wood posts. A two-story ell is visible at the rear of the house, as is a small shed-roofed frame storage-room addition. The residential yard is bounded with chain link fencing, and a short poured-concrete walk leads from the sidewalk to the porch.
Date based on Sanborn fire-insurance maps.
