Unpainted rendered walls with rendered quoins, c.1880. Square-headed window openings with rendered sills, and moulded rendered surrounds, c.1880. Replacement uPVC casement windows, pre-1999. Square-headed openings remodelled, c.1980, to left ground floor with timber casement window, aluminium panelled door in timber shopfront having pilasters, and timber fascia over. Round-headed door opening and segmental-headed carriageway to right ground floor in timber shopfront having pilasters and fascia over, with fixed-pane aluminium window, glazed aluminium doors, and overlights. Road fronted with concrete brick cobbled footpath to front.

A well-proportioned house that retains most of its original form to the upper floors. However, renovation works over the course of the late twentieth century have detracted considerably from the external appearance of the house. Nevertheless, the house remains an important component of the streetscape of Main Street, and is of particular significance in the locality for its historic associations with Timothy A. Healy (1855 - 1931), Governor-General.
