It features one window on the ground floor, which is a sashed bay window with a moulded wooden cornice, and one window on the first floor, a Yorkshire light. The central section is three storeys high and constructed of red brick with stone dressings and a parapet concealing a steep tiled roof. Three windows are set in deep, plain reveals. A six-panel door is set within panelled reveals, topped by an elaborate fanlight framed by a pediment and plain pilasters. The north section is two storeys of red brick with moulded wooden eaves and a steep tiled roof with a gabled dormer. One window is present on each floor, set in slightly recessed frames. The building is part of a group that includes numbers 89 to 105 (odd) on Dunstable Street.
