The rear of the cottage has a continuous outshut, a stair window, and an entrance. The outbuilding features a rear entrance, garage doors on the side, and a window at the front. Inside, the cottage has ovolo beams and a spice cupboard with butterfly hinges. The staircase is adorned with splat balusters and square newels. On the first floor, there are some plank and muntin partitions, and a corbelled beam in the end wall, which may have been used for a smoke hood.
