Access to the central door is via a flight of stone steps with an iron railing. The door is a six-panel design with an overlight and a Tuscan doorcase. The wooden eaves cornice features shaped brackets. Each gable has small round-headed windows with glazing bars to illuminate the attics, while the rear of the building has casement windows.
