In a style reminiscent of the Bahay na Bato of pre-1860s heavily influenced by Spanish-style architecture, concrete materials are used on the ground floor, varnished wood on the second floor, and  capiz for windows and other decorations.
The house retains its original materials and architecture, including the molave stairs, the adobe walls, the wooden panels and the machuca tiles.
It has a spacious second floor to accommodate social gatherings.
A row thick, plaster-coated Tuscan columns supports the veranda on the side facing the Pasig River.
The house faces the Pasig River because at the time it was built, most guests arrived by boat.

Standing in front of the house is a 200-year-old balete tree (strangler fig).
This tree was declared by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as the second heritage tree within City of Manila.
The Lichauco balete tree is the eighth Heritage Tree proclaimed in Metro Manila, However, it is the first heritage tree to be declared inside a residential compound.
