The building is constructed from droved ashlar with polished dressings, although the ground floor on the left has been painted.

The facade is regularly fenestrated, with a modern door and glazing on the left side. The flats have timber panelled doors with plate glass fanlights in the fourth and eighth bays from the right, and there is a modern glazed door with an access ramp in the seventh bay from the right.
The ground floor features modern glazing, while the upper floors predominantly have 12-pane and plate glass in timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are corniced rendered stacks with circular cans.
