"This 2½ story residence exhibits the complex roofline and asymmetrical façade typical of Queen Anne style houses. The house is frame and sits on a coursed ashlar stone foundation. The hipped roof has a prominent cross gable projecting from the primary (west) façade. A one-story porch terminates at the projecting gable, but curves around the southwest corner of the house. It is supported by Doric columns and has a dentiled cornice. The southwest corner is also graced by an oriel window on the second floor. The original entrance has been altered from double doors to a single door, but retains its original stained glass transom. Two other stained glass transoms can be found above the first floor windows on the west façade. The north façade has a projecting cross gable with chamfered first floor. Windows on the second floor and in the dormers have diamond patterned upper sashes. A two story frame and clapboard two-car garage, constructed in the 1970s, is located at the back of the lot." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
