Square-headed window openings with stone sills to front (south) elevation, having two-over-two pane sliding sash windows. Door opening to front elevation within doorcase, obscured by foliage. Outbuildings to rear. Set within own grounds with rubble stone enclosing walls, gate piers and wrought-iron gate.
