Character defining features include an inset full-width enclosed porch supported by tapered columns resting on square pedestals and a blind balustrade (porch details are a later Craftsman addition). Windows are 9/6 and 6/6 double-hung wood sash windows, and 6/9 double-hung wood sash floor-length windows in the primary elevation. The center entrance has sidelights and transom. Decorative beams are located in the gable ends and are also a Craftsman-era addition.
