The listing includes two structures, the main house and the garage cottage.

The other two houses in the complex were built later for Craig and Virginia's sons Walter and John.

The Walter Sheaffer House is located at the top of a 200-foot (61 m) bluff overlooking the Mississippi River.

[3] The Tudor Revival features of the 2½-story brick house are two stone-parapeted gables, two dormers with half-timbered gable ends, a two-story stone-framed bay window, and a porte cochere with three flattened arches in the Tudor style.
