"This one-story, hip-roofed house is three-bays wide and double pile with a hip-roofed rear ell. The high, hipped roof has a gable centered on the façade and two interior brick chimneys. Granite steps and knee walls lead to the hip-roofed porch; original weatherboarded columns and piers have been replaced by square posts with a replacement railing. Original wood weatherboards remain along with two-over-two wood windows. The front door is a modern replacement and a second front entrance has been sided over. The house is nearly identical in form to 1014 Burch and may have been constructed by the same person. The earliest known resident is J. L. Green (laborer) in 1919; Green remained in the house through the early 1930s. In the 1930s and 1940s the house was listed as a duplex."
