Two storeys, three windows, the centre bay projects with pediment over. Porch with flat entablature supported on slim iron columns, 4-panel door with transom light over. All windows are 6 over 6 pane sashes. Plain low pitch roof with gable stacks. There is additional walling on the outside of either chimney wall attaching the house to the adjoining ones, one extra door on the left side. Probably retains original low spiked railing and gate.
