It is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, two bays in width, with a front-facing gable roof and a porch extending across the front supported by Ionic columns. The entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and wide pilasters. The house was built c. 1848, and is one of the earliest houses built when Auburndale was subdivided for development.
