[1999] - The main block of this two-story house has a pyramidal hipped roof. A square corner tower with a steeply pitched pyramidal roof is attached at the southwest corner, and other projections from the main block include a small, gable-roofed two-story rectangular bay on the west, and a one-story shed-roofed front porch with a gable-roofed second story balcony above it. The building is covered with decorative stickwork in the form of banded panels, some filled with clapboards, some with vertical boards and some with carved and decorative woodwork, including two carved vases with flowers on the front corner tower. The porches are trimmed with spindles and the tower roof is covered with painted shingles.
