The front features a three-window range and a small gable in the center. Most of the windows are 20th-century casements, while the ground floor includes 18th-century double-hung sash windows with glazing bars and a 19th-century canted bay. The roof is tiled and has an original central chimney stack with grouped diagonal shafts.
