Rendered, ruled and lined walls with large granite footing. Open-bed pediments to the centre bay of the original house, copied to the north-easternmost bay to the rere. Round-headed timber sash windows with granite sills throughout resting on granite consoles with elaborately carved stone hoods and keystones. Pilasters to corners.
