The core of this building began as a 1½-story, end-gable-roof house; enclosing it are a 19th-century bracketed-cornice flat-roof addition across the façade, a hip-roof addition at the northwest corner, a semi-octagonal addition on the north elevation, a 2-story ell on the east elevation, 6-over-6 sash, and a large shed-roof dormer on the south slope of the roof. By the 1870s, this property, like the nearby house at number 22 (q.v.) belonged to Catherine O’Flagherty, and members of that family continued to own it into the 1920s.
