From the National Register nomination

Two-story Colonial Revival house of stretcher brick-veneer frame construction with an asphalt-shingled gable roof. The one-story front porch has square-section brick pillars and Tudor-arched spans. Other features include a poured-concrete foundation, an exterior brick chimney on the south end with staggered concrete weatherings as shoulders, quarter-round gable windows flanking the chimney, a lunette in the north gable, a reworked basement garage opening, 8/8 and 6/6 windows, and a one-story frame rear addition with vertical wood siding. A wood privacy fence encloses the back yard. The 1948 Sanborn map describes the house as "from plans" and notes the basement garage. A building license for the house may have been issued as early as 1940. Virginia Day was a teacher.
