The bungalow has two front doors visible, rocking chairs,a wood paneled roof, four large windows with four columns, and a wooden plank porch. The bungalow appears to be on a stilt foundation. Surrounding the bungalow are trees, and another structure toward the left. Printed on the bottom right is a number 1655 which could possibly be a photographer's image number. There is light abrasion damage along the edges, beginning signs of foxing but it is in good condition overall.
