From the National Register nomination

104-5144-0025 Medical Business/Office, Stories 2.00, Style: Late 19th and Early 20th C. American Movement, 1923 Another two-story, two-bay, hipped-roof, brick American Foursquare with an exposed concrete foundation, 415 Lexington was built by carpenter T.E. Hughes in 1923. Hughes and his wife Mary occupied the house until their deaths and the building remained in the Hughes family until the mid-1970s. The two-bay facade is approached via two low concrete steps, terminated at each end by concrete parapets that are slightly lower than the porch and modern, metal handrails. Four Tuscan columns support the hipped-roof porch that stretches across the entire facade, while two engaged columns terminate the frame porch against the building. The porch has a turned balustrade and simplified entablature. The door is located in the north bay of the east-facing facade, features sidelights, an elliptical fanlight with tracery, and a brick segmental arch, and is flanked to the north by a window. The 1st floor's south bay and both of the 2nd story bays have single windows; all windows are one/one-sash and have segmental surrounds and arches. The asphalt shingle-covered roof projects slightly and has a deep eave with exposed rafter ends. A hipped-roof dormer with three louvered windows and exposed rafter ends peeks out at the center of the facade, while a brick chimney is visible towards the rear of the building. A small, one-story frame porch flush to the north elevation extends the rear of the building. The brick is laid in common bond.
