This large house, in the style of a gentleman farmer's residence, maintains distinctive features characteristic of late Georgian architecture, such as elegant proportions to the façade and subtly diminishing windows, all of which enhance the architectural composition of the piece. The house presents an early aspect, with much of the original form intact.
