From the National Register nomination
One-story single-family dwelling of weatherboard-sided frame construction on a poured-concrete raised-basement foundation, with all original features including a standing-seam-metal front-gable roof, a brick flue with a corbelled cap, 2/2 double-hung wood windows, a single-leaf paneled door of wood and glass, and a two-bay front porch with square wood posts. Located just below street grade, on a lot that slopes steeply down from front to back, the house has a shallow, terraced front yard that eases access from the street level to the front entry.
Date based on Sanborn fire-insurance maps.
