Gambrel roof of tile. 2 storeys over basement. 3-window range. Stack to end wall. Just to the left of the centre of the main elevation is a segmental-arched entrance with brick quoin surrounds. All windows have similar surrounds. There is a full-height brick quoin strip to the corner. To either side of the entrance is a window, the head of each obscured. That on the left is narrower than that on the right. First-floor windows are flat arched and aligned with those below; the window in the entrance range is blocked. A brick dentil cornice is interrupted by first-floor window lintels. The roof has 2 flat-arched dormers. In the late C19 or early C20, a timber porch with lean-to tile roof was added to the ground floor. Bay windows were put in the ground-floor windows: that to the left triangular in plan and that to the right rectangular. INTERIOR: not inspected.
