Consisting of a single-storey front range with its entrance in a lean-to behind to R. The 2-storey farmhouse is behind to centre, with a later wing behind to L forming the garden front. The earlier house has a long single-storey projection forward on the R side (probably built as the coach house but now a garage). Pebble-dashed walls are painted cream. The front range has a hipped roof, the rear wings have gabled roofs. Three-bay front has eaves projecting on brackets, and round-headed hornless sash windows. A canted bay to centre has a central pedimented doorcase with panelled pilasters, and a half-lit door under an overlight with radial glazing. In the side walls are round-headed sash windows offset to the rear, with a basement door on the R side and a barred basement window on the L side. Set back from the R end wall is a lean-to entrance porch reached up stone steps. It has a doorway with a 3-pane overlight and a door of 2 vertical panels.
The older part of the house, to R of the lean-to porch, has 2 sash windows in the lower storey, with lately inserted windows to upper storey and attic. The steeply-pitched roof has a stack to L. In R gable end of old house is a lean-to, in front of which the former coach house has a blocked doorway under a keyed lintel, to R of which is a hornless sash window.
