The house has two storeys, topped by a crenellated parapet. An octagonal stair turret rises three storeys to the right-hand corner and features slit windows. The main tower to the left has a 20th-century casement window set beneath a square head. The ground floor has a large segmental arch which has been filled in with 20th-century matchboarding, incorporating a ledged and boarded door.
