The house has a double-depth plan and is two stories high with a three-window range. A 20th-century sash door is located on the left, and to the right is a 20th-century four-light casement window. The first floor has three eight-pane horned sash windows from the 20th century. Inside, it is reported that there is a 17th-century panelled hall and staircase.
