This is an example of Queen Anne design exhibiting a high degree of integrity despite some alterations at the southeast corner of the structure.

The structure is located in a portion of the Central Area also known as the East Madison district.
A complete permit history, and a complete record of ownership and occupation have not yet been prepared for this property.

| Appearance |
The windows and doors are characterized by patterns and details customarily associated with Queen Anne architecture, although the extensive overhangs at the eaves and at the pented gable ends are somewhat unusual for that style. The deep frieze and the half-height Tuscan column at the inset entry porch give the structure a slight Free Classic flavor.
This house was built in 1904 according to both the King County Property Record Card and the King County GIS Center Property Report. According to the King County Property Record Card, the house was remodeled prior to 1937; however, the extent of the work undertaken and the date of the work is not indicated.
A bight metal stovepipe chimney and wood frame chimney enclosure have been added near the southeast corner of the structure.
