Tavistock House is a house, now used as offices, built around 1830. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings, and features a coursed limestone rubble rear elevation and the right side of an extension. The roof is made of Welsh slate with stone gable copings. The building has two storeys and five windows, along with a lower right extension that has two storeys and two windows.
The central entrance has a renewed glazed door and overlight set within a Doric doorcase that includes engaged columns, an entablature, and a blocking course. The windows have wedge stone lintels and projecting stone sills, with renewed sashes and a first-floor sill band. The extension features 20th-century paired windows beneath rebuilt lintels. The roof has wide end chimneys, while the extension roof is hipped. There is a wide square-headed dormer on the left and a smaller flat-headed dormer on the right end.
