It is an eaves, three-axis and three-storey residential building under a gable roof . The right axis of the house forms with the left axis of the neighboring house Adenauerplatz 2 a common central projectile covered by a flat triangular gable , in which the two deeply set back house entrances with double-leaf doors can be reached via six steps made of basalt lava .

The ground floor shows horizontally running plaster strips, tall rectangular windows are in narrow plaster frames. The entrance to the house is bordered by plastered blocks. A string course brings us to the first floor, there is a continuous and verköpften around the buttress Sohlbankgesims combined into a parapet zone. The plaster frames of the windows are more elaborate and characterize the storey as a bel étage . On the outside there are two tall rectangular windows over detached parapet fields with cartridges . Consoles support the protruding roof. The window in the central risalit is framed by pilaster strips that support a strong, architraved roof over acanthus capitals . Baluster columns emphasize the window parapets.

The second floor is in turn kept significantly lower, more restrained and simply designed with a continuous cornice cranked around the risalit, on which three narrower and lower high rectangular windows, flanked by wide pilasters , which support a continuous cornice, sit. They are repeated at the corners of the risalit. A strong eaves cornice closes the facade from the roof . A plastered wall panel, framed with moldings, in which a portrait head sits, follows in the central projection . The triangular gable protrudes above it. The rear facade is painted. Both semi-detached houses each have a two-storey extension under a flat roof on the shared partition wall . The yard area is paved.
