The residence, built circa 1870, is a two-story three-bay house with a one-story ell, six-over-six sash windows with replacement shutters, a shed-roof porch with turned balustrade and clustered posts, two end brick chimneys, straight-flight stair, and a simple Victorian sawn mantel. The house was altered during and after the turn of the century with Victorian and later additions to the house. These alterations seem to obscure the late Greek Revival features it originally had.
