A two-storey house in the Shingle style — shingles wrapped round the corners into one continuous surface, the interest carried by curved dormers and flared eaves rather than by ornament. It is the oldest known house in the Oceanside, bar a Stick-Eastlake cottage further along 48th Avenue that was moved onto its lot in 1924.

A water tower stands on the lot, left from the years before the mains reached this end of the Sunset and households drew on their own wells.
