There are two ashlar stacks. The structure is two storeys high.
The main house has a central door flanked by a 3-light window on each side. On the first floor, there is one 6-light window, which has undergone some alterations, and another 3-light window. The cottage to the left has a ground floor entrance and one single light window on each floor. The left gable wall includes a blocked loading door on the first floor. The rear elevation is rendered.
