The front is made of stone rubble, with the upper floor tiled at the southern end. The east front has a dormer with leaded casement windows. On the first floor, there is one tall casement window arranged in two tiers, complete with original leaded panes and catches, and a wooden lintel above it. Below this window, there is a wooden boarded door in a frame, while the ground floor has three modern casement windows. The south front is tile-hung above two window bays and includes 19th century sash windows that do not have glazing bars.
