On the street-facing facades, the second-floor windows are topped by gabled or segmented-arch pediments with brackets on either side.

The first floor of the facade facing Walnut Street is sheltered by a porch supported by slender clustered columns, with round-arch openings that have carved woodwork in the spandrels, and a low spindled balustrade.

The building interior is well preserved, with lincrusta wall covering, ornate woodwork, and glass chandeliers.
