Square-headed window openings with one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, tripartite to canted-bays and having one round-headed window to rear, with painted sills. Round-headed door opening with moulded render hood moulding and having timber panelled door with continuous glazing to sidelights and fanlight.

Appraisal
This well-proportioned house is enlivened by notable features such as the timber sash and canted-bay windows and door surround. Though not a country house the influences of classical design are evident in features like the position of the centrally-placed chimneystacks. The outbuilding and entrance gates contribute to the site's setting.
