It is a two-story brick building. Its sanctuary has an unusual "corner pulpit from which four aisles radiate reminiscent of early 'meetinghouse' styles. It rises two stories with a curved balcony surrounding the rear sides of the sanctuary. All millwork and furniture are of oak. The plank floors are white pine."[1]
