This door is flanked by two-light casement windows, with a one-light window to the far right and another two-light casement window to the far left. On the first floor, there is a two-light casement window, all of which have timber lintels. Inside, the property features chamfered spine beams and two open fireplaces with stop-chamfered bressumers.
