The side elevation includes a gable with a canted window and a slate roof. The opposite side elevation has a gable with a bipartite window at the center.
At the rear, there is a modern flat roof extension. The cottage has timber lying-pane glazing in sash and case windows, a graded grey slate roof with lead flashings, and a central stack with octagonal cans.
