The building has two storeys and an attic, with one gabled dormer. There are two windows, which are glazing-bar sashes, and a tripartite window on the ground floor to the right. The doorway is located to the left and consists of a six-panel flush door with an overlight, framed by a 20th-century glass-reinforced plastic fluted doorcase.
