The cottage features Flemish bond brickwork, while the rear wall of the cartshed is constructed in English bond brick. Both structures have tiled roofs and brick stacks. The cottage is two stories high and has three windows. To the left, there is an outshut porch with a planked door and a raised roof, featuring a 20th century two-light casement window. To the right, there are two two-light casement windows and a three-light casement window from the 19th century. On the first floor, there is one single casement window to the left and a two-light casement window to the right. The right side of the building has a single leaded casement window. The rear of the cottage includes a four-panelled door from the 19th century to the left, along with three-light and two-light casement windows on the ground floor, and a slate-roofed verandah. The first floor has three two-light casement windows. Inside, there is a chamfered beam with step and run-out stops, an open fireplace with a chamfered lintel and step and run-out stops, and planked doors. The five-bay cartshed has an open front supported by posts and a tie-beam roof with raking struts to the collar.
