The north wing is two storeys high and has a three-window range, featuring sash windows with glazing bars, except for the ground floor right, which has French windows. The east wing is also two storeys and has a four-window range, with two-light casements that include glazing bars. The entrance features a six-panel door with a fanlight that has radiating glazing bars.
