DescriptionThe main building is two-story Greek revival house with a two-story porch supported by columns. Smaller and possibly older sections of the building adjoin this structure at the rear. Three outbuildings, probably including a barn are immediately to the left. There is a picket fence in front of the building and a rail fence on the opposite side of the street. The trees lining the street appear to be elm trees. A man, woman and boy stand looking at the mansion house.
