The house is 2+1⁄2 stories in height, with a complex cross-gabled roof configuration and an exterior clad in a combination of wooden clapboards and decoratively cut shingles.

It has the asymmetrical look of a typical Queen Anne Victorian, with varying projecting sections and dormers.

A single-story porch wraps across the front and around part of the right side, with turned posts and balusters, and a spindled valance.

The interior retains numerous period features, including woodwork and stained glass windows.

The house is one of three (all still standing) built on Soldier's Hill after the fire, and includes a well-preserved carriage barn with original hardware and finishes.
