Gables are present to the right and left of the front elevation, and four gables are visible at the rear. The two storeys and attic space contain a four-window range of leaded casement windows, each with transoms. The central entrance consists of a two-panelled door with a fluted surround, upswept frieze, and two lights on either side.
