Detached seven-bay two-storey country house, built c.1780, with two-bay full-height bow to rear elevation. Now in use as a nursing home. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Segmental-arched window openings to ground floor, square-headed window openings to first floor. Round-arched door opening with Ionic columns supporting a fluted frieze with rosettes and a plain fanlight. Multiple-bay two-storey extensions to east and west. Modern extension to rear.
Although many original features and materials have been replaced, this country house retains interesting architectural detailing, such as the segmental-arched window openings on the ground floor and the bow to the rear. The carved timber doorcase adds artistic interest to the former seat of J.I Corballis.
