The
house continues the trend of combining Progressive with
Eclectic. The main roof is hipped and has a deep overhang,
but it is made steeper to accomodate the paired front
gables. The recessed porch has a low segmental arch and
incorporates urns on a dropped parapet in the manner of
the Prairie School. The windows are grouped and have a
simple glazing pattern. However, the first floor windows
appear to have been replaced with steel casements.
