A porch hood is supported by brackets above the door, and a boot scraper is located to its left. The windows are 12-pane hornless sash windows with flat arches throughout.

The rear wall of the main range is part of the structure of the red Heavitree stone chimneystack belonging to St Nicholas’s Priory. The house forms part of a terrace row.
