This one-story, side-gabled bungalow is three bays wide and four-pile with a full-width, gabled rear ell. The house has a brick foundation, aluminum siding, two interior brick chimneys, and an exterior corbelled brick chimney on the west elevation. It retains most of its original four-over-one, double-hung, Craftsman-style wood sash windows with two-over-one, double-hung windows flanking the exterior chimney. A picture window, flanked by four-over-one, double-hung windows, is located on the left end of the façade. The replacement door is sheltered by a front-gabled porch supported by tapered posts on brick piers. The porch continues to the left end of the façade, beyond the gabled roof and is sheltered by a metal awning on decorative metal posts on brick piers. The earliest known occupant is Robert P. Leonard (cook, Malbourne Hotel) in 1930.
