Typical of the Queen Anne style is the multiple gable roof with decorative bargeboards and brackets and prominent brick chimney. An offset left facade contains the main double door with single light transom. Side windows flanked by brick voussoirs are also of note. On the northeast corner is an open veranda with a finely decorated second storey balcony.
