The building is single storey with an attic and has a three-cell layout. There are various 19th and 20th-century casement windows, along with one gabled dormer located at the rear. To the left side of the facade, there is a colourwashed brick and pantiled lean-to that includes a mid-20th-century entrance door. An internal stack is present in the structure.
