The house is constructed of reinforced concrete, covered by
stucco, and has a red tile roof. Among the features of the Maegly House that are often included in Prairie School-style dwellings are decorative corner
brackets and ornamental
friezes, above and below the second-floor windows. One narrow frieze positioned just below the eaves encircles the entire house except where interrupted at the corners by the decorative brackets. The interior is noteworthy for its use of high-quality Honduran
mahogany. Every room in the house has multiple windows, and every ground-floor room opens to a porch or terrace. Downtown Portland and
Mount Hood can be seen from the living room, dining room and kitchen. The home is surrounded by a garden notable for its collection of
Japanese maples, planted by Aaron Maegly's wife. A circular brick driveway leads to a
porte-cochère. ==See also==
