It has two storeys and one bay facing the street, with an additional three storeys to the rear. The front entrance, located to the right of centre, features a plain stone surround with tie-stone jambs and a rectangular overlight.

A two-light, flat-faced mullioned window sits on the first floor, alongside 20th-century top-hinged casement windows. The building has paired gutter brackets, a gable coping on the left side, and a four-flue brick stack to the left. The rear facade has two-light windows. The interior has not been inspected.
