From the National Register nomination
Two-story Craftsman/Colonial Revival house of stretcher brick-veneer frame construction with an asphalt-shingled hip roof with hipped dormers on all four sides with wood-shingle siding, dentil cornices, and fluted pilasters. The one-story wraparound porch has square-section brick pillars on a brick railing with concrete copings and base band, a modern wood lattice roof-top railing, and a south-end porte cochere with vinyl infill between the pillars. Other features include a brick foundation and basement, a south-side exterior brick chimney flanked on the first story by decorative multipane windows, a rear interior brick flue, a front entry with sidelights and an elliptical fanlight, large front windows with ten-pane upper sash, and an enclosed two-tier back porch with a second-tier sleeping porch. A brick and poured-concrete retaining wall extends across the front of the lot and along a driveway that passes through the porte cochere to a rear garage. Behind the house are a modern curved brick handicap ramp, a brick, rockfaced cinder-block, and vinyl wall and fence with globe lamps, and a parking area along the alley. Lambert, who served as contractor for the construction of the house, was president and treasurer of the Lambert Manufacturing Co. in 1948. He was also a president of the Southern Industrial Loan Association and a vice president of the Citizens Waynesboro Bank & Trust. Lambert built the house as a residence for himself and his second wife, Anne. The house is now Body By Nature Massage Therapy & Spa.
