From the National Register nomination

Two-story single-family dwelling of asbestos-shingled frame construction on a parged masonry foundation, with a standing-seam-metal gable roof and an interior brick flue. Other features include a single-leaf paneled wood entry door, 1/1 double-hung windows with vinyl sash, and a one-story, three-bay front porch with modern metal columns. Additions to the house include a two-story shed-roofed section to the house, a one-story addition to that, and a modern deck. Privet hedges bound the property along the street, and a poured-concrete walk and steps lead to the front porch. Occupied by Martha Reeves in 1935.

Date based on Sanborn fire-insurance maps.
