"This two-story wood frame dwelling is contained within steeply pitched intersecting front and side gables. The house is basically a two story version of the L-plan type and its asymmetrical facade features 2/2 and 1/1 double hung wood frame windows flanking double wood and glass entry doors. The attached full width porch is supported on tapered boxed columns topped with stylized "capitals." Sited on a lot that slopes to the rear, the house incorporates a garage at the northwest corner (rear). An extensive interior renovation took place in the mid 1990s. The house is in good condition and retains a high degree of exterior integrity.
The house is significant for its Queen Anne/Classical Revival style detailing and as an example of a district dwelling that evolved through compatible additions over time. It also is significant for its association with district development in the late 19th century."
