The house has two storeys and attics, with the upper storey jettied across the entire front. At the south end, there is a cross wing featuring a carved bressummer and carved bargeboards. The ground storey is faced in brick and there are four windows with modern casements. The north end includes two two-storeyed bays. The roof is tiled and hipped at the north end, featuring two hipped dormers and a large central chimney stack that has been rebuilt. Additionally, there is a large external stack at the south end, which has two square shafts set diagonally on a rectangular base and has also been rebuilt.
