This two-story house is an example of the Shingle Style subtype (with some Colonial Revival detailing) and is an early work of the Pasadena-based architectural firm of Charles Greene & Henry Greene, whose later work would be the most celebrated of the American Arts & Crafts movement in Pasadena. The house has a complex roof form, including a primary hipped roof with gambrel roofed wings projecting from the west and south elevations and a five-sided polygonal bay with an octagonal roof at the southeast corner. All roofs have boxed eaves with extended block modillions. The oval-shaped attic window on the front-facing gambreled-roof wing has colored art glass and an elongated keystone. A second-floor balcony with a rounded solid railing accessed by French doors connects the two bays on the west elevation. The projecting full-width front porch has a hipped roof, a low solid wall rather than an open railing and is supported by heavy square columns clad in wood lap siding with mitered corners. The house has a composition shingle roof; walls clad in rectangular wood shingles on the second floor and narrow exposure wood lap siding with mitered corners on the first floor; a concrete foundation; wood double-hung windows in wood-framed openings and a non-original front door with a fan-shaped light in an original wood-framed opening flanked by sidelights. Two different muntin patterns are evident in the house, including diamond-shaped and, on the polygonal bay, a centered circular muntin with four radiating muntins at 90-degree intervals. Between the polygonal bay and the southerly gambrel-roofed wing is a brick chimney; a wood exterior staircase was attached to the north elevation when the house was converted to apartments in 1940. The front yard is slightly elevated from the street by a concrete curb, which is topped by a newer wood
fence.
