The roof is thatched and has a gablet on the right side, along with brick stacks at both ends and on the ridge. The cottage is two stories high and has a four-window range. There is a 20th-century glass door located in a gabled porch to the right of the center. The windows throughout are 20th-century two-light aluminium, except for a single-light window to the left of the door and a central first-floor window in an eyebrow dormer. The interior has not been inspected. This building is included for its group value.
