The regular form of this villa style house is enhanced by simple detailing such as the modest entrance. The tripartite windows to the façade are interesting features, and some retain the remains of timber sliding sash windows. The house retains some modest plasterwork to the interior. The site retains a simple gate lodge, which adds context and interest to the composition.
