Roughly symmetrical two storey elevation with five windows on the first floor. Ground floor has a C19 type door with two glazed vertical panels, moulded architrave, flat hood on heavy brackets. Unevenly spaced tripartite sashes on either side, 6 over 6 pane sashes flanked by 2 over 2 pane. First floor windows are all 6 over 6 pane flash framed sashes, the gap between the one over the door and the flanking ones is slightly wider.

Railed forecourt with plain wrought iron spike railings and gate. Cellar to left front with entrance door. Rear wing on the left side behind the hip. Rear elevation not inspected.

The interior shows features of both the early C18 and the early C19 and there are also late C20 divisions, especially on the ground floor. The staircase is early C19 and has stick balusters and a continuous handrail, but it has been altered from its original form. Early C19 joinery, panelled doors etc. Ground floor otherwise not seen at resurvey. The first floor rear room has a coved early C18 plaster ceiling and another room has a heavy rectangle with an oval within it in early C18 plaster moulding.
