Among its prominent exterior components is the fenestration, which features leaded glass and Palladian windows.: 5 Built at the junction of Pine and Forest avenues, the house is a prominent component of its neighborhood's built environment. As a large building constructed in a combination of the Colonial Revival and the late Queen Anne styles, it dominates both cross streets.: 5 It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. In 2020, the building was a bed and breakfast with 16 rooms.
