The McCarthy House had a rectangular main house plan, with a covered porch lining its perimeter on three sides, a plan type derived from Monterey Colonial architecture. One gained entry in the middle of the west side, and proceeded into a formal entry hall. Stairs led to the second floor. On the first floor, the main rectangular block included a pantry, dining room, library and living room, while the second had two bedrooms on the north and south ends, each with a bath, between which was a sitting room. A shallowly-pitched hipped roof covered the main rectangular block. McMurray appended An L-shaped service wing--containing the kitchen, service porch, maid's quarters and garage--to the house's northwest side. The McCarthy House appeared in House and Garden, vol. 70, no. 3, 09/1936, p. 141. Architectural historian David Gebhard used the McCarthy House as a Monterey Colonial example in his article, "The American Colonial Revival in the 1930s," Winterthur Portfolio, vol. 22, no. 2/3, Summer-Autumn 1987, p. 138.
