The building's oriel facing the street corner to the southeast is striking . At the northeast corner there is a half-timbered bay window. The use of half-timbered elements took place at the urging of the city building authority. Both the facade facing the stone bridge and the street “Am Hospital” have rich plaster decorations. On the facade there is a larger than life plaster relief depicting flora . Another relief is on the east side and shows a seed breeder. The house is considered one of the most sophisticated Art Nouveau buildings in Quedlinburg.
