This house shares general characteristics with other Missouri-German Houses in Hermann,
though it is more elaborately detailed. This 1-story house has parapeted side gables with
paired chimneys on each end and a cut stone foundation. The entrance is centered in the 5-
bay façade. It is sheltered beneath a single-bay, classically detailed porch with dentiled
cornice returns and a broad entablature. The porch roof is supported by square Doric
columns and there are scrolled ornaments attached. There are 2/2 windows with segmental
arches on either side. Windows have working shutters. The slightly overhanging eaves are
lined by an elaborate wood cornice with dentils and scrolled brackets. There is a two-bay
garage with shed roof and concrete foundation at the alley. There is also a brick gable roof
smokehouse. A stone retaining wall lines the front yard." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
