The building is constructed of stock brick and features a channelled stucco ground floor, topped with a slate roof. It stands four storeys high, including a basement and a dormered mansard, and is two windows wide.

On the upper floors, the windows have recessed sashes set beneath flat gauged arches. There is a plat band above the first floor, and the parapet is finished with coping.
An early 19th-century cast iron balcony with a geometric pattern is present on the first floor, and there are wrought iron area railings.
