The building has a central hallway entry with an outshut under a catslide roof and a cross wing at the rear. It stands two storeys high and has three first-floor windows. The entrance includes a 20th-century glazed door with a divided overlight, set beneath a flat stone arch and flanked by 16-pane sash windows with wedge lintels. On the first floor, there is a sash window with glazing bars beneath a stone lintel, flanked by additional 16-pane sash windows, also beneath wedge lintels. The farmhouse displays a fire insurance plaque, gable coping, shaped kneelers, and end stacks.
