There are two windows to the left and two to the right of the door, with an additional door in the lower bay on the outer right. The first floor has three regularly spaced windows, while the lower bay on the outer right is blank. Above the first and third bays, there are pedimented dormer windows.
The northwest elevation, facing Main Street, features a crowstepped gable with a window positioned to the left of centre on the first floor.
