The house is five bays wide under a gable roof. Its walls are random coursed ashlar with stone lintels and sills. A wooden addition on the north side and a front portico with lattice supports were added around 1860. The interior remains basically intact. The house is one of the few stone houses in Albany County and the only one of its type in Guilderland. The lattice-supported portico is considered unique to the area and was probably made popular by a local craftsman. The original farm setting has been maintained, even as modern suburban development moves closer. The building is regarded as a significant example of early nineteenth-century vernacular stone construction. It remains in residential use, and its architect and builder are unknown.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Vernacular stone farmhouse","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is listed as good, with the interior basically intact and no known threats.
