The NRHP Registration Form in part:
"Sudbrook Park is a residential community initially developed as a summer resort. The majority of the domestic architecture dates from the mid-18901/ to the mid-1910's. The shingle style predominates although several examples of Colonial Revival and the Queen Anne style exist.
The gambrel roof, often extending over a porch, is a recurring motif in Sudbrook Park. Some large structures represent the Colonial Revival with small pane window sashes and the ever present variations on the Palladian window.
Polygonal towers and a profuse use of the bay window comprise further architectural features. The application of mid-20th century siding has diminished the effect of the shingle style on a few buildings.
500 Sudbrook Road is a handsome shingle and frame cottage whose most striking feature is the treatment of the roof; a pair of cross gables one of which dominates each facade. On the east and south a short, shed roof extends outward from the gable encircling a wide porch set back underneath the roof.
The porch on the northern corner of the east façade has been enclosed with frame siding similar to ±he exterior wall of the first floor of the remainder of the house. "French" doors give access to the porch from this northeast room as well as from the principal rooms on the first floor. The shingle gables contain the second floor.
Two triangular breaks in the gable end wall! form hood-like projections over a pair of sash windows. A four part casement window lights the attic above. To the north of the cross gable block a one bay gambrel roof wing extends.
