This house retains most of its original form and character, the design of which incorporates distinctive features including bay window, limestone walls and brick dressings, which enhance the architectural appeal of the composition. The stained glass panels to the bay window are an interesting feature, further enlivening the handsome façade. It forms a group with the adjacent semi-detached houses and the outbuilding.
