From the National Register nomination

Two-story frame Victorian house with asbestos-shingle siding and a metal-sheathed gable roof with peaked louvered gable vents and sawtooth wood-shingle siding in the gables. The one-story front porch has modern posts, sawn brackets with heart-shaped cutouts, and square-section balusters. Other features include a poured-concrete foundation, an interior brick chimney, an unusual four-bay front elevation with the entry occupying the northernmost bay, 6/6 and 1/1 windows, one- and two-story rear wings, and a back deck. A poured-concrete retaining wall extends across the front of the lot.
