The front has a regular arrangement of two windows, each fitted with 16-pane sashes. The central entrance consists of a panelled door flanked by two top lights, topped with a moulded triangular pediment that extends above a small canopied and trellised porch. The interior has not been inspected. A two-storey addition to the left is not included in this description.
