A string course runs along the upper floor, which has three windows with plain surrounds. The eaves are adorned with a modillioned cornice, and the roof is hipped with a left-of-centre ridge stack. At the rear, there is a taller three-storey block on the right-hand side. The interior is not accessible. Surrounding the house is a garden wall made of rockfaced stone, with vermiculated stone gate piers topped with moulded caps that are inscribed with "BRACKENLEY HOUSE."
