The Mrs David Roberts residence is a 6-bedroom, 3-bath, 4,000 square-foot wood frame house at 4301 Altamont Road in Forest Park-South Avondale, accessed from Altamont Alley. It was built for Mrs David Roberts between 1910 and 1912, and was designed by architect William Leslie Welton.
The two-story house is clad with wood board siding to the second floor window sills, with stucco above. The roof is a simple terra-cotta gable, with the ridge running unbroken from side to side. The front eave is interrupted by broken-plate dormers at either end and there are two smaller attic dormers in between. The overhanging gable ends are supported on carved brackets.
