The residence, built in the early 19th century, is a one-and-a-half-story two-bay one-room V-notch log cabin with a facade sheathed in eight-inch flush boards, Greek revival two-panel doors, a rear stone-and-brick chimney that has been dismantled, and six-over-six sash windows with three-part mitered surrounds.
