The windows are mullioned and transomed, and there are small half-timbered gables. The front elevation includes a projecting porch bay with a steeply-hipped roof and a moulded stone Gothic archway to the front door. A leaded stair window is located on the left-hand side. The garden elevation has gabled projections with a five-light window. Attached to the east side by a wall is a single-storey, attic garage with a half-hipped roof and a hipped dormer.
