On the first floor, there are two widely spaced sash windows with intact glazing bars. The ground floor includes a bay window on the left and a casement window with margin lights on the right. The gable end facing the road has a later three-light splayed bay on both floors, with sash windows. To the right, there is a panelled door within a wood trellis porch with a gable, and further to the right, a recessed bay with sash windows on both floors.
