The Fennimore Store, a two-story frame building with a hipped roof and a prominent front porch, served as a vital hub for the rural community of Leipsic. Its vernacular architectural style reflects the practical construction common in early 20th-century Delaware. The building retains much of its original character, including its storefront and interior layout.
