The porch is supported on fluted columns set on piers. A masonry balustrade spans between the posts. The half-timbered gable bay is the dominant feature of the house. The gable bay features a set of casement windows under a sunhood and a corner suite. The door is located under the porch in an arched entryway. Lower walls are brick and the upper walls are rendered. The roofscape features rendered chimneys and finials.
