It is topped by a low hipped roof, surmounted by internal chimneys, further emphasized by the use of a balustrade with alternating solid and Chinese lattice panels.

The front facade features a full-length tetrastyle porch with Doric order columns and entablature.

Also on the property are a contributing brick kitchen with a low hipped roof, office, a dairy and a smokehouse.
