Similar to other Missouri-German houses in Hermann, this is a 1 1/2 story brick house with side-gable roof sitting on a stone foundation. The facade is 5-bays in width with a central entrance. Fenestration has segmental arched openings with stone sills, and windows are replacement sash. The corbelled cornice has a dentiled band above a slightly projecting stretcher bay under a very narrow eave. The dormer is a newer addition (c. 1940?). It is wide with a hipped roof and four modern replacement windows. The east wall abuts a neighboring building. The foundation shows evidence of a cellar entry off sidewalk at the left front. There is a brick arch evident in the stone foundation. A modern garage is located at the rear of the lot." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
