From the National Register nomination

Two-story Colonial Revival house of stretcher brick-veneer frame construction with an asphalt-shingled gable roof. The front entry has a classical fluted surround and there are unusual three-part first-story front windows. Other features include an interior brick chimney, B/8 windows, and a one-story flat-roofed rear addition (ca. 1960) of brick-veneer and frame construation with a metal carport extension and an attached metal garden shed. Building records suggest the house may have been begun in 1941, but the 1948 Sanborn map labels it "From Plans".

Date based on Sanborn fire-insurance maps and city building-license files.
