From the sidewalk, is a small group of stairs to get up on the front porch. There are two doors of the front porch, which makes it appear to be an apartment building.

To the right of this house is a three-story house with a group of windows on the third story. It is also made of brick and has a small set of stairs from the sidewalk to the front porch, which is a much smaller front porch.
