It consists of a 1+1⁄2-story Cape style house, connected via a single-story ell to a barn, stretching along the road.

The main house is five bays wide, with a central entrance that is flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters, and is topped by a broad entablature.

The barn is 2+1⁄2 stories in height, and has Greek Revival pilasters, entablature, and gable end returns.

Although the structure is mostly vernacular in style, its Greek Revival elements illustrate how rural builders applied current fashions.

The main doorway, for example, is a near direct rendition of one depicted in Asher Benjamin's The Practical House Carpenter, a popular design book published in 1830.
