The main block of the house, built circa 1880, includes six-over-six sash windows in plain frames, a one-story wing, and a rubblestone chimney with brick stack. The north wing, which was added around 1900, has a stone-and-brick end chimney with four-over-four sash windows. With the addition of the north wing, the main facade conveys an L-plan configuration with a shed-roof porch sheltering a three-bay entrance.
