The street-facing side has two advanced gables, with the door located in the narrower gable on the right, topped by a cusped-headed bipartite window. The garden elevation has two bays, with the left bay featuring a gable and the right bay topped with a gabled dormer. The roof has shaped skews with finials and gabletted skewputts, along with corniced end stacks that have corbelled chimney breasts above ground and grouped square flues. The property is enclosed by ashlar-coped rubble-built garden walls with square gatepiers.
