From the National Register nomination

The 1910 two-story, wood-frame with brick veneer Colonial Revival sits on a poured concrete foundation under a pyramidal slate roof with a front-facing gable with scalloped wood details. The building has 3,540 square feet, which is consistent with scale and massing within the neighborhood. The façade of the building features a three-bay arrangement with an off-center to the north front door with an intact transom, and a full-front wood columned on brick piers porch that continues past the house to create a north porte cochere. The windows throughout are one-over-one, double-hung, vinyl replacements. There is a central interior brick chimney and a rear interior brick chimney in the northeast corner of the house. There is a one-story, wood-frame brick veneer garage with a flat roof that sits to the east of the primary resource. The house style and materials choice are representative of the neighborhood, and the house follows setback from the street typical of the neighborhood.
