It is one storey high with attics. The front has two windows and a door located to the left of center, positioned between three-light casements, all of which have segmental arches. There are also two small three-light dormers. The roof is half-hipped on the left side and has a central stack. The left gable is likely timber framed. The interior has not been inspected.
