Structure Description
This is a simple two story house with a front gabled roof. The windows are simple double hung sashes with nine-over-one pane configuration. The house has a wood frame structure with horizontal wood siding set on a stone foundation. Vertical wood trim defines the borders. Dormers on the sides of the house are decorated with Eastlake ornamentation. Under the pediment of the gabled corners is a centered trefoil with leaf-like carvings to the sides. An abstract floral carving is placed at each of the bottom corners.
The main entry is emphasized by a Colonial Revival porch; square columns support the gabled roof; the pediment is broken by an arch decorated with a wood keystone and a sunburst pattern.
