The house was built about 1797, and is a two-story, three-bay, brick-and-frame, nearly square dwelling with a pyramidal roof. It has a side-hall plan and features four tall and narrow brick chimneys. Also on the property are a contributing L-shaped frame tenant house, two small cemeteries, and one additional grave.
