There are steps leading down to the basement, leading to door pieces that are architraved, consoled, and corniced, each topped with three-pane fanlights. The ground floor windows are arranged in tripartite formations, while the first-floor windows consist of a single light above the door and tripartite windows otherwise, all featuring consoled cornices.
