This one-story, clipped-front-gabled bungalow is three bays wide and triple-pile with flush, clipped-gabled bays toward the rear of each side elevation. The house has a brick veneer, two interior brick chimneys, and aluminum siding in the front gable. It retains many four-over-one, double-hung Craftsman-style wood sash windows, with several different modern-styled windows on the north elevation. The engaged front porch is supported by intricate metal posts with brackets and a decorative metal railing running between them. There is a gabled rear ell on the southeast corner and a flat-roofed block north of the ell. A brick retaining wall extends along the driveway to the south of the house. The earliest known occupant is William H. Forester in 1935.
