The original Altfillisch house was probably in a style sometimes called “Minimal Traditional,” which designates a large group of straightforward modern homes with minimal exterior decoration. The home’s low profile and overhanging roof hint at a Prairie style influence. According to the 2023 owner, the distinctive broad brick chimney and narrow vertical windows on the south elevation are, along with two new fireplaces, parts of a major 1994 renovation and addition. The retaining wall and rear deck are slightly later twentieth-century additions.
