The building has two storeys and a four-window range, with modern casements. There are two late 19th-century shop fronts that include modern glazing bars. The central entrance doorway is adorned with fluted square Doric pilasters and an entablature that has triglyphs, metopes, and guttae, along with a cornice and pediment.
