The building has two rear chimney stacks and stands two storeys tall. It is designed with end pilasters and consists of three bays, with the central bay breaking forward. There is an eaves band and a three-window range of vertically sliding sashes with glazed margins and internal shutters. The central entrance has a two-panel door with top lights and a semi-circular fanlight above, flanked by fluted pilasters with bases and capitals, a moulded frieze, and a flat canopy. The house also includes rear wings.
