Built in 1926 as the second house in its Jefferson Court row, 40-03 48th Street is a type F' house with a three-bay rear wall. The landmarks survey noted that its enclosed front porch kept its historic layout, now with single-pane casements and an asphalt-shingle roof, and that its small front yard was edged by a curb of glass bottles. The facade had been cleaned and repointed, and the back yard was fully paved, with a red-painted concrete deck.
