The building features some timber framing at the rear of the right bay and left gable, while the rest is constructed of rubble stone and brick, partly colourwashed. It has a thatched roof that is half-hipped to the right and includes three brick chimneys. The house is 1½ storeys high and has four irregular bays. The ground floor has four irregular 20th-century leaded casements, and the upper floor has three 20th-century three-light casements in thatch, with the centre one featuring ornamental leading. There is a 20th-century door in the third bay and garage doors to the right. A single-storey extension at an angle to the right is made of colourwashed brick with a tiled roof.
