The house was built about 1880, and was a two-story, three-bay, center hall plan stuccoed brick dwelling with a gable roof. Attached to each gable end were one-story flat-roofed wings. The front facade features en elaborate entrance reflective of a mix of architectural styles. Also previously on the property were a frame tenant house with attached summer kitchen, servant's quarters dwelling, a large two-story barn, and a variety of agricultural outbuildings.
