It is constructed of brick and features a hipped tile roof with plaster coved eaves on the north side. The building is two storeys high and has triple sash windows on each floor of the front elevation. The left section of the building contains an earlier sash window, which is part of the original 17th-century house. The northern part of the structure has been altered in the 18th century and includes a large offset stack on the north wall, with three sash windows located to the right of the stack. There is also a north-west wing, which was originally a barn from the 18th century, now adapted and featuring timber framing with modern brick infill and casement windows. The house has a large offset stack on its north wall.
