The south front presents a symmetrical facade of three windows. On the ground floor, two 24-pane sashes without horns flank a glazed central door. The door is surrounded by a doorcase featuring a moulded entablature and flanking pilasters, topped with a fanlight containing intersecting glazing bars. A single-storey verandah, supported by timber posts and featuring a glazed lean-to roof, extends across the front of the house. The first floor has three 24-pane sashes without horns, with crown glass. The cottage is constructed from rubble stone with a slate roof and has timber lintels over the openings. A lateral stack is present on the north rear.
