The house has weatherboard siding, a gabled roof covered in asbestos shingles, double-hung wood windows with operable shutters, and a single-door entrance with a transom. A two-bay porch has box columns with molded caps and squared-wood balusters. The front-projecting wing has cutaway corners, pendants, jig-sawn brackets and imbricated shingles in the gable ends. An interior brick chimney has a corbeled cap. The house was listed as a good example of the common L-plan form, and its off-center porch gable makes it unique in Cuero.
