Architecturally it corresponds to the traditional Scottish style. It is built on one level and plastered using the traditional Harling technique. Two windows symmetrically surround the front door, which is set in the middle of the front. The top floor has been expanded and is illuminated by three dormers that protrude from the front. The building ends with a slate-covered gable roof . At the back there are various additions for agricultural use.
