The main block of the farmhouse is two storeys high and consists of three bays. The lower right wing is also two storeys but has only one bay. The main entrance is a central four-panel door with an overlight and a flat brick arch above it. All windows are four-pane sashes with stone sills and flat brick arches. Above the first-floor windows, there are blind square panels, and there is an eaves band along the roofline. The building has external end stacks. The lower kitchen wing on the right has a four-pane sash window with a stone sill, and above it, there is a four-pane side-sliding sash window, with an end stack to the right.
