The image shows a single-story brick house with a centered door, flanked by windows with curtains. A small garden with plants is at the base of the house. The number "401" is displayed to the left of the door. The sky has scattered clouds and the horizon is barely visible above the roofline. Light shines through the glass panel of the door, revealing a silhouette inside. The house is in black and white, with detailed textures of the brickwork and roof tiles visible. A suburban street can be seen in the background.
