Particular architectural features include a modillioned brick eaves cornice, a sill band at first floor level and the brick-on-end arch with central keystone over the front door. Also of particular note is the large canted bay window with external brick-on-end arches and dentilled cornice to the front elevation. Internally, many further attractive period architectural features abound to include pine panelled doors, cornices, ceiling roses.
