The ground floor includes segment-arched openings, a central tripartite window flanked by two single windows, and panelled double doors with fanlights. The basement has similar openings. The upper floors feature a central tripartite window flanked by three single windows, all with round-arched openings and hood moulds, while the second floor windows are smaller. The attics have a central coped gable with a finial and a tripartite window. The clerestory has continuous glazing with round-arched lights and dentillated wooden eaves. Inside, there is a wooden winder stair and a truss roof.
