Two-storyColonial Revival house of brick-veneered frame construction with an asphalt-shingled hip roof. The main roof and a hipped dormer have modillion cornices. The front entry porch has heavy quoined brick pillars with classical columns in antis and a roof balustrade. Brick terraces extend to each side of the porch. The one-story screened porch on the right side has similar pillars and a wood-shingled sleeping porch above. To the left of the front porch are windows with decorative sashes; similar windows continue around the side and give this part of the house a sunroom character. The windows overlooking the front porch have decorative diamond-pattern sashes. Other features include six-over-one and eight-over-one windows and segmental-arched basement windows. Former address: 1314 13th Ave. According to research by Leslie Keller, Hugh S. D'Anna and his wife, Rose Shuford D'Anna, had this house built in 1914. The county date for the house is 1915.
