"The Butterfield House is a one-story, wood-frame, pyramidal-roofed residence with Classical detailing. The house is square in shape and has a pyramidal roof of composition shingles, originally wooden. The three-bayed front is composed of a central doorway with transom and sidelights flanked by two French doors with shutters. The exterior siding is of horizontal clapboard and the foundation is of mortared schist. The front of the house has a porch which extends Halfway down each side of the building. The porch roof is supported by split porch posts and the sides of the porch have turned baluster railings. The exterior of the house retains its essential integrity, the only alterations being a ca. 1945 front door, partial rear porch enclosure and new porch floor. The interior of the house has undergone some alterations, primarily the removal of the wall between the hallway and the living room and the relocation of the kitchen from its original basement site to the main floor."
