4-story residential building originally completed in 1830 as a 2,5-story house with dormers. It was heavily altered in 1925 by Glifford Reed Daily into a stuccoed studio building, and is distinguished by the decorative use of pseudo-medieval half-timbering with smooth stucco walls. Steep roofs with twin gables slope down to a deep overhang at the front. The half-timbered panels, below the windows, relate them to each other in a continuous vertical bay. The same treatment appears in two rows of bay windows on the south side of the building, centered under the two gables which gave the building its name - "Twin Peaks".
