PLAN: Double-depth plan.
EXTERIOR: The building is of two-storeys with a symmetrical 3-window front plus extra doorway on the right. Within the principal (north) façade the building retains its original 12-pane hornless sashes on the first floor but the ground floor windows have been replaced with modern plastic framed versions. The central doorway has pilasters and moulded entablature with panelled reveal and door. The other doorway has a 4-pane door and overlight. The rear elevation also retains its original windows on the first floor with a small 8-pane window located within the centre of the property and two flanking 12-pane sashes similar to those on the principal façade.
INTERIOR: Not inspected
