This  contributing, c.l855. vernacular,  Greek  Revival  residence  is distinctive  for  its  masonry  (brick)  construction.    With  a  stone foundation,  1-1/2 story, gable front plan with gable end returns. and 1/1 sash with masonry  lintels,  and original  door surround.  This building  retains  some  degree  of  integrity,  although  considerable  modifications  have  taken  place  -  particularly  in  regard  to  sash replacement.   It remains a supporting element o.f the district, due to its integrity of form and construction  material.
