The pediment above the porch is supported by pairs of fluted Ionic columns. Bracketed eaves extend along the cornice below a deep overhang. Larger brackets support the entrance balcony. Galleries with turned spindles and urn-shaped finials flank the entrance. The gallery on the north is extended to form a porte cochere. On the north side of the home is a beveled and leaded stairway window. A two-story bay on the south side features a “bottle glass” window. On the interior the grand staircase features a semi-circular balcony. Original mechanical devises in the home include a speaking tube, doorbell system and a corner light system.〔
