It is two storeys high with a garret and has four windows across the front. There are rusticated pilaster strips on either side, and a cornice at the first floor level. The windows are 6-paned sashes. On the ground floor, there is a single window to the left, while the shop front to the right includes a shop door flanked by display windows, each with a single upright glazing-bar, and a house door to the left. These elements are separated by pilasters that support an entablature.
