The window and door are framed by pilasters with a plain fascia and cornice. Above, there are two replaced four-pane sash windows with projecting painted stone sills. The eaves cornice and low parapet add to the building's character, while the roof features stone-coped gables and end stacks. This building is included for its group value with No. 14.
