This 1½-storey wood frame and stucco, Arts and Crafts-style house is at the southeast corner of Inkster Boulevard and Charles Street in Winnipeg. Measuring 24 feet by 36 feet, it was built in 1924 by owner/contractor Moses Dorfman at a cost of about $3,500. He sold it to George Douglas Iliffe, a chartered accountant at the firm of George A. Touche and Company.
At the time of a 2026 site visit, the house was relatively unmodified from its original appearance.
