The building has two storeys and features a four-window range with double-hung sashes that include glazing bars. The entrance boasts a six-panel door topped by a rectangular fanlight with ornamental glazing, set within a wooden doorcase that has fluted pilasters, a frieze, and a cornice. The roof is hipped and covered with tiles.
