today, the house still conforms closely to the period of lenox's ownership of the house, and the fundamental architectural integrity of the building remains largely intact. it has been said that the davis-lenox house “is one of the finest examples of colonial city houses in philadelphia in the late 18th century.” built of old brick, the house is three and a half stories high, with brick belt courses between the floors. the front door is eight paneled, with a pediment above. a brick water table is positioned between the first floor windows and the foundation. the half story contains a dormer window. the interior room layout is essentially the same as it was in the early 19th century.
