The Vermont village of Beecher Falls is located just west of the mouth of Halls Stream; its northernmost business, a manufacturing facility of the Ethan Allen Furniture Company, directly abuts the border between Vermont Route 253 and Halls Stream.

At the time there was no US Customs presence at these crossings so travelers were expected to proceed to Beecher Falls to report.

The U.S. station is located abutting the border on the west side of Vermont Route 253, opposite the Ethan Allen plant.

The front facade of the building is five bays wide, with a central entrance flanked by sash windows.

The interior of the main block is symmetrically divided into areas for processing customs on one side and immigration on the other, with additional office space and holding cells on the attic level.

The station is a little-altered version of one of several standardized designs produced by the United States Treasury Department Architect as part of the program.
