Square-headed window openings with render sills throughout, having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows. Central two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window to canted bay flanked by one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Fixed timber-framed windows to porch. Square-headed door openings to porch having double-leaf glazed timber doors with stained glass overlight to southern opening and timber battened door with overlight to northern opening.

This former rectory is characterised by a number of features typical of the Victorian Gothic Revival style, including an irregular plan and varied roofline with steep pitches. The porch is particularly notable for its design and stained glass overlight. The building retains many noteworthy features including timber bargeboards and timber sash windows, and forms part of an excellent group with St Peter's Church to the north.
