To the right side of the house, there is a lean-to extension that includes a 20th-century three-light mullioned casement. On the left side, there is a 2-storey 20th-century extension that contains a garage. At the rear, there is a blocked hollow-chamfered Tudor-arched doorway and two 2-light mullioned casements to the left. The centre features a 20th-century door and a blocked square-headed moulded doorway, while the right side has a 4-light leaded casement. The first floor includes two single-light leaded casements, a 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement, two 2-light wooden casements, and a 20th-century three-light casement.
