The two-story, brick structure is a fine example of vernacular Queen Anne architecture.
[2] It follows an asymmetrical plan and features a high-pitched hipped roof, a gabled and a round dormer on the south elevation, a two-story gabled-roof pavilion on the east, a two-story polygonal bay with a hipped roof on the west, and a single-story addition on the back.
Of particular merit is the wrap-around, latticework porch that has a round pavilion with a conical roof and finial on its southwest corner.
[3] The house was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
