Built sometime around 1736, with two additions that were erected circa 1749 and 1840, it is a 2+1⁄2-story, four-bay by one-bay, coursed fieldstone dwelling with a gable roof with dormers. The western addition is a low, one-story structure with a gently pitched gable roof. The eastern addition is one-story.[2]
The additions are unified to the main structure by a porch. An enclosed porch and library were added in 1941.[2]
