This one-story, gable-front-and-wing bungalow is two bays wide and double-pile with a gabled rear ell at the northeast corner and a shed-roofed addition beyond the ell. The house has a brick foundation, vinyl siding, and an interior brick chimney. It has a replacement front door and vinyl windows throughout, but retains purlins in the gable ends and a square vent in the front gable. The engaged front porch is supported by decorative metal posts on brick piers with a metal railing running between them; it is accessed by a brick stair with brick knee walls and a metal railing. A shed-roofed sunroom with louvered windows has been added to the right end of the façade, within the L of the gable-front-and-wing roof. There are aluminum awnings around the porch and sunroom and over windows on the west elevation. A flat roofed corrugated metal carport with v-pipe supports is attached to the west elevation. A concrete retaining wall, with concrete stair extends along the street. The earliest known occupant is J. Otis Peacock (tobacco worker) in 1940.
