The farmhouse has two framed bays, two storeys, and a garret. The first floor has two three-light leaded casement windows. A segment-headed boarded door is positioned slightly left of centre, with a 20th-century gabled porch. There is a three-light segment-headed leaded casement to the left, and a two-light and a three-light segment-headed leaded casement to the right.
