The building is two storeys high and has a symmetrical arrangement of windows, with two sets of two windows on the first floor. The house on the right has a central doorway that features a boarded door set in a stone architrave, which is topped by a cornice supported by consoles. The four-pane sash windows have projecting sills and are placed under segmental arches. Above the door, there is a shaped date plaque. The building has shaped kneelers, although the gable copings have been removed. There is a brick stack at the left end and a roughcast stack at the right end. The outbuilding, which is angled back on the left, has a large square-headed opening with a door, two four-pane casements on the first floor, and a brick stack on the left end.
