The Hermanutz house is located across a street north of the Peters house. It is the simplest of the houses in its exterior and interior design. The plan is a simple rectangle with a full-height bay window on the south wall. A porch extends across the front facade and wraps around the southwest corner. A rear recessed porch was enclosed when the kitchen was modernized, and a new side entrance was added. A front extended gable has a decorative wood arch framing the window.
