It is a 2+1⁄2-story brick structure, with a round three-story tower at one corner, around which a wraparound porch extends. It features Romanesque segmented-arch and round-arch windows, and chimneys with decorative corbelled tops. The interior features high-quality woodwork original to the house's c. 1887 construction.
