On the north elevation facing Townhead, No 7 features a modern timber door to the right of centre, with windows in the flanking bays and two small windows on the first floor. There is a door to No 9 in the bay to the right of centre, accompanied by flanking windows at ground level. The forestair, which has barleytwist cast-iron railings, leads to No 6, where there is a timber door on the first floor and two windows to the right.

The west elevation facing Barclay Road is a blank gabled wall with a high boundary wall on the left side.

On the east elevation, there is a flat-roofed garage at ground level, with a window to the left of centre in the gablehead.

No 7 retains plate glass glazing in timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with pantiles, featuring a slate easing course at the eaves. The chimneys are made of coped squared rubble with some cans, and there are thackstanes on the gablehead stacks, along with ashlar-coped skews.

The boundary walls consist of high flat-coped rubble and low dry-dashed walls.
