It is a frame building with a brick veneer. Its original part is 45 feet (14 m) by 43 feet (13 m); a 20 feet (6.1 m) by 36 feet (11 m) was added in 1894. Both parts were built by brothers Anton and Ulrich Walser. It had a wooden front porch with pillars and a second story verandah which was removed in the 1950s.[2]
