When the home was built in 1879 it was built in the Carpenter Gothic style popular from 1840 to 1880. Since the home was built near the end of that period, its features are slightly less imposing but still have many of the Gothic revival standards like a centered front gable with a steep angled roofline. However, it does not possess highly decorated vergeboards but has more subdued and recessed decorations.
