A late-Georgian-style 3-storey 2-bay house, of rendered front painted grey, and slate roof with shared brick stack to the R. Openings are offset to the L and in the lower and middle storey have smooth-rendered surrounds. The entrance on the L side has a panel door and overlight. In the lower storey is a margin-lit 4-pane sash window. Middle and upper storeys have sill bands, and 4-pane sash windows except for an oriel window on the R side of the middle storey, which has paired 2-pane sash windows. Upper-storey windows are shorter.
The 2-window rear is pebble-dashed, has sash windows and a 2-storey rear wing.
