This one-story, gable-front-and-wing house is three bays wide and triple-pile with a shed-roofed block at the northeast corner. The house has a stuccoed foundation, vinyl siding, and vinyl windows. The projecting front-gabled porch is supported by grouped square posts that have been wrapped with aluminum. The house retains exposed rafter tails and purlins in the gable ends. It appears on the 1937 Sanborn map and is listed as vacant in the 1940 city directory; the earliest known occupant is Preston L. Williams (presser, Stein’s) in 1945.
