The listing includes the house and two log barns, with a total of three contributing buildings. The house is 50 feet (15 m) west of U.S. Route 84 and 200 yards (180 m) north of New Mexico State Road 95.[1]
It was deemed to be the best preserved of several "officer's plan" houses in the area, which by oral tradition were based on a type of officer's house used at Fort Lowell. The type introduced Anglo-American elements into the local architecture. It includes stock Queen Anne elements.[2]
It is built with stucco and end boards over 18 inches (0.46 m) adobe walls and has a wraparound porch.[2]
