The building seem today originates in a two-storey, jaæf-timbered building constructed on the site some time between 1691 and 1712. The facade towards the street was reconstructed in brick in 1743. The building was heightened with one storey in 1791. The facade is plastered and red painted with white painted windows. It is crowned by a four-bay gabled wall dormer with cornice returns. The main entrance in the bay furthest to the left is topped by a transom window with coloured glass. A two-storey side wing extends from the rear side of the building. The walls on this side of the building are finished with black-painted timber framing and plastered, white-painted infills.[28]

The property was owned by Bodil Kirstine M Michaelsen in 2008. Restaurant Nyhavn 38 is based on the ground floor.
