The district includes two contributing buildings and two contributing structures. The main house was built between 1910 and 1914, and is a 2+12-story, brick-and-concrete Classical Revival mansion with a steel frame. The front facade features a full-width portico with pediment supported by six Corinthian order columns. Also on the property are a contributing brick, tiled-roofed three-bay carriage barn/garage; fish pond; and formal garden.
