This one-story, front-gabled bungalow is two bays wide and triple-pile with a projecting side-gabled bay on the north elevation that is flush with the façade and a shed-roofed block behind that bay. It has a brick foundation, vinyl siding and trim, and an interior brick chimney. It retains six-over-six, double-hung wood sash windows throughout, but has a replacement front door. The partially engaged front porch is sheltered by the main gable roof on the right end and a shed-roofed extension of the gable on the left end, both supported by tapered wood posts on painted brick piers. County tax records date the building to 1925; the earliest known occupant is William Luther Palmer (reverend) in 1930; the Palmer family remained in the house through at least 1965.
