It was deemed significant in part for its architecture, as
one of the most distinguished examples of vernacular architecture from Fromberg's boom period. The two-story brick house's straightforward massing is enlivened by a complex combination roof, sandstone foundation and window headers and lintels, and the wrap around front porch. The house serves as an excellent representation of a type of large, architecturally sophisticated house common to the period and remains as the most impressive house ever built in the Blewett Addition.[2]
