To the left on the ground floor, there is a doorcase with an architrave, pilasters, a cornice on consoles, and a six-panelled door.

The main block facing the river has five 12-pane sash windows on the top floor, with the left window positioned at a lower level. On the first floor, there are two 16-pane sash windows.
