The building is constructed of red brick and has stuccoed window arches. The windows are recessed sash types with glazing bars. The entrance has a modern plank door, which is topped by a reeded cornice head and a patterned rectangular fanlight. This is set within a stuccoed surround that includes pilasters, an entablature, and a blocking course.
