A 2½-story side-hall-plan house set gable end to the street with clapboard first story and shingled second story, 1-story braced-turned-post full-width front porch with pedimented end gable over principal entrance, 2-story semi-octagonal bay window flanking the principal entrance to its south, 2-over-2 windows, end gable that projects beyond the wall plane of the façade above its bay window, 1-story flat-roof section to the north of the main block, and small chimney on the ridgeline toward its western end.
Murphy probably built this as an income-producing property, for he did not live here.
