The masonry party wall is corbelled at the first floor level for the former jetty. The front is plastered timber framed with a first floor jetty. The first and second floors have architraved sash windows with glazing bars. The ground floor has a modern shop window and doorway, while the former architraved house doorway has been converted for use as a window.
