The home is situated on a large double lot, set back from the street with an expansive backyard that has a pool/spa and fruit trees. There is a two-car detached garage that has been used as a studio. The home is just one of a few that the City has deemed potentially eligible for listing on the National and California register of Historic Places according to a publication in 2006. Several capital improvements were completed recently including foundation work in 2024, a chimney liner in 2002, a sewer liner in January 2025 and the exterior was painted in 2023.
