Entrance in gable end facing street: a secondary porch gable is offset to the right of the main gable of the house, the doorway itself renewed in an added lean-to porch. 2-light casement window above the entrance. Main gable has asymmetrical roofline, swept down low to the left hand side. 4-light casement window with shutters in main gable, the 2-light upper window off-set. NE elevation: roof sweeps down low over lean-to projection of ground floor to the right (with altered openings). 2-light casement window with shutters alongside this outshut in the main body of house, with small paired round-arched openings alongside. The outshut is wrapped around a long catslide dormer which has 2-light casement windows at either end. 2-light casement window to either side of the chimney in the gable wall. SW elevation: roof swept down over loggia to the right, with French windows recessed. Low cat-slide dormer in the roof above.

Interior
Reason for designation
Although some of the detail has been changed, the house retains much of its original character as a good example of the work of North and Padmore, and is part of a group with No 6 Trillo Avenue.
