This one-story, front-gabled Minimal Traditional house is three bays wide and double-pile with a flush gable on the west elevation and a gabled rear ell on the northwest corner. The house has a stuccoed foundation, vinyl siding, an exterior brick chimney on the west elevation, and an interior brick chimney near the ridgeline. Original six-over-six, double-hung wood sash windows remain on the west elevation, though all others have been replaced with vinyl. The front-gabled porch is supported by decorative metal posts on a concrete slab floor. The earliest known occupant is Mrs. Susie R. Christmas (dressmaker) in 1945.
