Falling Waters Road undulates over rolling farmland moving west from Spielman Road to the Potomac River. As it curls past a bluff on the north, the corner of an old brick house, obscured behind a tall thicket of evergreens, appears briefly.
Before it, a narrow gravel drive separates from the road, climbs the bluff to the front of this house, then descends again to join the road a little west.
Facing south, the five-bay house has two stories, with its main entrance in the center bay over the ground-level entrance into the basement. Windows have six-over-six sashes set in narrow, rounded frames. The house is brick, laid in Flemish bond on the front façade, set atop stone foundation walls. Wide, flaring flat arches made of exceptionally long angle-cut bricks top the front openings. Loose bricks can still be seen in putlog holes around the house at regular intervals.
