It is constructed of white pointed Flemish bond red brick and features a red tile roof along with four gable brick chimneys. The building has a double-pile plan and a two-storey symmetrical front with three bays. The end bays contain flush 12-pane sash windows with flat stone heads that have simulated rustications. The central bay features a 20th-century board door and a 12-pane sash window, both under similar stone heads. Each gable is adorned with pairs of small circular lights.
