2 1/2 story gabled stuccoed residential structure on a raised foundation, gable facing the street. A reconstructed hip roofed porch across 2/3 of the facade serves a pair of doors on the left side. The paired one over one replacement window unit on the right is directly below one of two such units at the second floor level. There is a single window in the gable end. There are new shed dormers on each side of the roof, and a two story shed roof addition to the rear. The fenestration on both side walls is irregular.
