Its main block is an L-shaped wood-frame structure, with a cross-gable roof, and a large gable above the porch in the crook of the L. The three front-facing gable ends have decorative Folk Victorian jigsawn trim and different styles of siding, and the porch features turned posts, a spindled balustrade, and a decorative frieze.
