The house appears as a wide 2-storey rendered house with gently hipped slate roof and bearing a modern verandah.
Although this building appears as a single house it started out as two small cottages. On 30 November 1864 John Sinclair notified the Council that John Holmes would build him a cottage. The Rate Books subsequently listed the cottage as having four rooms.
