It was built in 1895, and is an I-house with Queen Anne style decorative elements with an Eastlake theme, notably the geometric banded frieze and geometric stained glass doors with running trim.[2] It is a two-story, frame dwelling and has weatherboard siding and a brick pier foundation. The front façade features a two-tiered, full-width front porch. Also on the property are a barn (c. 1900) and a smokehouse (c. 1910) with a braced overhanging front gable.[3][4]
