The fin-de-siècle church building exhibits an unusual combination of Shingle and Gothic Revival styles and designed to evoke the feel of a medieval English chapel.
The rectory was built in 1902, and is a two-story, Queen Anne style frame dwelling with a one-story wraparound porch.
The parish hall was built in 1910–1911, and is a two-story, Gothic Revival style stuccoed and shingled building that complements the church.
