The main house was built about 1790, and is a 2+1⁄2-story, five-bay, Federal style brick dwelling. It has a 2+1⁄2-story, four-bay, brick addition added in 1882–1883. Also on the property are the contributing brick well structure, the frame icehouse/blacksmith shop, a frame carriage house, the brick-entry, a frame poultry house, and a farm manager's house (c. 1815).
