This 2½-storey dark brown brick and wood shingle siding, Craftsman-style house on Balmoral Street in Winnipeg, measuring 34 feet by 38.4 feet, was designed by architect Robert Gilmore Hanford. It was built between 1912 and 1913 by contractor James Winterbottom for owner David A. Anderson. He was a dentist operating out of an office on the second floor of the Enderton Building.

At the time of a 2018 site visit, the house was relatively unmodified from its original appearance.
