The building is constructed from snecked rubble and features a prominent southeast facade with five bays. This facade includes arched windows that alternate with pediments, framed by Roman Doric pilasters at the first floor. The central entrance is highlighted by a swagged, consoled, arched, and pedimented doorpiece, flanked by sections with one-window openings that also have consoled and pedimented first floor windows.
On the southwest front facing Dumbarton Road, there is a recessed central section with six windows, an arched and swagged consoled doorpiece, and arched first floor windows.

The building is topped with a balustraded parapet adorned with heavy swagged urns, and it is complemented by ornamental cast-iron lamp standards.
