It has a gable roof, weatherboard siding, brick foundation and stuccoed exterior end brick chimneys. The house features a large, two-story, pedimented portico on the front façade, with four larger square, frame columns with Doric order motif capitals. A large 1+1⁄2-story addition was added to the rear about 1900, when the house was made into a boarding house.[2][3]
