The verandah terminates at both ends at a gable thrust bay. It is supported on timber posts with post brackets. A vertical timber balustrade spans between the posts. The gable bay jetties over a bay window. The entry door is located on the west elevation under the verandah. The front facade features render string courses and a corner suite. The roofscape features rendered chimneys. The place sits on a limestone foundation. The lower walls are painted brick and the upper walls are rendered.
