The exterior is mainly harled, with exposed random rubble at the first-floor level on the south elevation, and features tooled ashlar margins. The entrance is off-centre, with a door flanked by a window on the right. There are small first-floor windows in the outer bays, each with 4-pane glazing. The house has a coped end masonry stack, flat skews, a slate roof, and a sandstone ridge.
