Description
 A four-bay raised Creole cottage typical to the 1830s period. Originally a double, it's four bays are two doors and two windows, all fitted with non-louvered wooden shutters with cast iron strap hinges. It is of masonry construction, likely utilizing the Creole strategy of "brique-entre-poteaux," or brick between posts, as a construction method. The continuous pitch, side-gabled roof is clad with asphalt shingles. Roof curbs run along the two peaked sides of the roof, and a shallow roof overhang extends across the width of the front facade, supported by simple wooden members. A decorative stepped cornice adorns the plastered front facade. The dormers are in the Federal style, with arched openings framing the upper sashes and slate tiles covering the sides.
