There is a brick chimney stack located at the junction of the original structure and the addition. The house is two storeys high and has a total of four windows on the front, which include 18th century two and three-light casements. The entrance has a modern central door with a hood above it. At the rear, there are two gabled wings that have external brick stacks.
