Painted rendered walls with moulded continuous sill course to first floor and bay windows, horizontal panels with moulding, and painted rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with moulded surrounds having cornices with decorative brackets, and painted moulded sills. Timber sliding sash one-over-one pane windows, with timber panelled interior shutters. Segmental-headed door opening with rendered surround having bracketed hood-moulding, plain fanlight, and replacement timber entrance door with glazed side panels, with limestone step. Set in landscaped garden with outbuilding to rear, having hipped slate roof and roughcast rendered walls. Main entrance with rendered piers with caps and having decorative wrought-iron gates. Entrance to rear at west with coursed capped stone piers and replacement metal sheet closure. Double garage to west.

This elegant and well maintained house has added significance due to its association with the nearby Catholic church. Its distinctive appearance is created by overhanging eaves and bay windows to the façade, which gives this formally proportioned house a more picturesque appearance.
