What is it about?

From the National Register nomination

July 2009: One-and-a-half stories in height with a full English basement, this brick Gothic Revival-style duplex features a rectangular-shaped footprint. This dwelling is constructed in a eight-course American bond. A one-story porch supported by turned posts covers the full-width of the façade and extends past the side elevations by almost a full bay on each side. The porch has intermittent balustrades, scalloped knee braces, and turned posts. The first story is four bays wide, with each side of the house containing a wood door topped by a jack arch in the outside bay flanked by a single 6/6 window with square-edged wood sills in the inside bays. The house is capped with a side-gable, slate-shingle roof with two steep cross gables on the façade. A shed-roofed, one-story, brick wing stretches across the full-width of the rear elevation on a random rubble foundation. A one-story, frame, flat-roofed addition has been added to the northwest corner of the house.
