A large pergola with carved beams extends from the roof eaves into the front yard and over the driveway, forming a porte cochere to the backyard. The home has a simple rectangular footprint and a hipped roof clad in shingles with flared eaves and curved, exposed rafter tails. While it has a similar footprint to other cottages in the district, its lower-pitch roof and larger windows along with the pergola/porte cochere show some early influences of the Arts and Crafts movement. In the rear, a Craftsman-style unit with 583 sqft (approx.) was built in 1911 and has a front-facing gabled roof and exteriors clad in coursed wood shakes. In addition, there is also a noncontributing shed at the end of the concrete driveway with exteriors of board and batten siding and a double-leaf door with strap hinges. 2 electrical meters!
