This is a typical log house. It is as first built with exception of the addition of a kitchen on the north side which was built of logs in the same manner.

It has a large stone fireplace in the room which has recently been faced with brick. The doors are batten; the stairway narrow with triangular steps at the turn.

This was a part of the large John Zelering estate, and not much history is known about it (1937).
