The ground floor windows are framed by an entablature surround that also features the palmette and anthemion frieze. Access to the villa is via six steps leading up to a prostyle Ionic porch supported by fluted columns. The entrance has a half-glazed door topped with a cornice head and a rectangular fanlight. To the right of the villa, there is a contemporary attached outbuilding. Numbers 4 to 12 on Pond Road form a group.
