The front porch has been enclosed and now creates a one-story sun room lines with ribbon windows. Two front doors are set into the porch. The house is clad in grey-painted wood clapboard with white-painted trim, and asphalt shingle roofing. Wide fascia trim with a neo-classical profile features prominently at the eaves. The windows feature delicate hood moldings. The windows throughout the house are original. Two-over-two double hung windows feature on the first floor, six-over-six windows on the second.  Two sixteen-paned multilights sit just below the eave-front portion of the roof on the east façade. The house has two interior brick chimneys, at the south and west façade gable ends.
