Though very similar in plan to the Whitehouse Residence (also in Highland Park), this design is more than a decade earlier and is much more spacious.
There have been some heavy handed alterations and additions over the years and the house retains little original character. As seen in the above photo, the front door has been pushed out into what was a sheltered entry portal. This ruins the dimensions of the facade, flattening it, making it just a single flat surface. This also hides the interesting brick pattern around the portal.
That alteration along with the current monochromatic paint scheme and roof color blur the original rich textural character of the structure.
