This large 2+1⁄2-story stucco-clad house was designed by Winchester architect Robert Coit, and built in 1912.

Mostly rectangular in its massing with a hip roof, there are two forward-facing gables framing the main entry, the right one projecting slightly.

The roof of the left side gable sweeps down to shelter a sunroom.

Fred R. Hayward was later the president of the New England Confectionery Company, which had been created by his father in a sequence of mergers.
