In its NRHP nomination, it was described as "a massive French Second Empire house of frame construction with a red brick veneer." Its mansard roof is covered with tin.[2]
Workmen on the house include D. R. Rogers, who papered the walls and ceilings of parlors, sitting rooms, halls and bedrooms, and did all painting; Aug. Lubitz, carpentry work; Henry Vetter, brick and stone work; and Mr. Chanley, plastering.
It is an example of Second Empire architecture.[2]
It appears to be fairly unusual for having two towers in what appears to be a single-family home application of the style. See: Category:Second Empire architecture in Wisconsin.
