39-43 45th Street is built as one of six stucco-fronted center houses in a Washington Court row
39-43 is the first of the six recessed center houses in the 1926 row from 39-35 to 39-59 45th Street, set back behind the hipped-roof houses on either side under a slate-shingled side-gable roof. Stucco covers the second-floor fronts of these center houses, 39-43 through 39-53, and elliptical fan panels crown the paired entries. Brick soldier courses run above the foundation.

The Landmarks Preservation Commission's 2007 survey of this two-bay house found the front porch closed in with non-historic infill, altered openings and single-pane windows with snap-in muntins, and a flagpole and light at the porch. The second-floor stucco was painted cream. A historic bluestone path still crossed the front areaway, inside a chain-link fence and gate standing behind scalloped concrete block.
