House. Early 19th century remodelling of an early 18th century building with a late 19th century wing to the right. Stucco with a steeply-pitched hipped thatched roof to the garden front with rendered stacks to the sides, double-pitched slate roofs to the rear block with a stack to the rear right. Probably originally two-unit plan, with an early 19th century front range forming a double-depth plan with the single-storey late 19th century right wing; rear lean-to.
Exterior: two storeys with attic. The entrance in the left return, facing the street, has an early 19th century reeded doorcase with blocks to the upper corners and a small modillion cornice, raised moulding to the panels of the reveals and a painted-over overlight with a pointed-arched pane to the centre and radial glazing bars; this is enclosed by a late 19th century glazed porch with a fretted bargeboard to the gable. The first floor of the three-window garden front has moulded architraves to pointed-arched French windows with Y tracery to the overlights and delicate cast-iron trellised balcony guards. Central dormer has a two-light casement window with a false painted similar overlight. Late 19th century canted bays to the ground floor support a wooden trellised verandah.
Interior: the entrance hall to the left return has a narrow open-well open-string staircase, has a painted wreathed handrail and curtail step and a semicircular-arched recess to the left. Six-panel doors to the ground floor, four-panel doors to the first floor, planked doors to the attic. The kitchen to the rear right has a former open fireplace to the angle of the corner, and the wall between the rear and front ranges is over 0.6 metres, probably a former exterior wall. A good example of early 19th century cottage ornee.
