This multi-story wooden structure displays characteristic Victorian Eclectic features typical of Valparaíso, Chile, including bay windows, ornate white-trimmed window surrounds, and wraparound balconies with decorative iron railings. The building features a steeply pitched mansard-influenced roofline with a top-floor terrace, and its ochre-yellow painted timber cladding is emblematic of the colorful hillside architecture of the cerros of Valparaíso. The asymmetrical massing and layered projecting bays reflect the European immigrant architectural influences that shaped the port city during its late 19th-century commercial boom.
