Two-story frame Colonial Revival house with vinyl siding and an imbricated slate hip roof with a hipped dormer with decorative windows, side gables with sawtooth wood shingles and Palladian windows.

Other features include a rockfaced concrete-block: foundation, interior brick chimneys, a rear exterior brick chimney, a front entry with classical surround, denul cornices in the main house, porch, and dormer roofs, a north-side one-story bay window, 1/1 windows, a front concrete handicap ramp, and a modern two-story rear addition.

Now Poindexter & Schersch law offices.
