The doorcase is adorned with two Tuscan pilasters that support a round arch. The ground floor also has a 2/2 sash window in plain reveals with a sill. The first floor features 12-pane French windows with plain reveals, while the second floor has two 6/6 sash windows, also in plain reveals with sills. The basement includes a 4/4 sash window. The building is topped with a cornice and blocking course, and there are side stacks and concealed dormer windows. The first floor has a continuous verandah with a balustrade that features a double-rod-and-anthemion motif.
