The late Arts and Crafts villa stands off Perth Road on the western edge of Magdalen Green to the west of Dundee city center. It is structured asymmetrically. The masonry of the two-story building consists of quarry stone with natural stone surrounds. The arched entrance door is on the north-facing main facade. A round stair tower emerges from the facade, which closes with a conical roof and weather valve. On the left is a small, one-story wing with a half-hipped roof . A crossed gable with a two-story rounded bulge protrudes from the south facade . To the left of the gable is a loggia with square and round columns. On top of it sits a balcony with a pseudo-reinforced parapet. A massive gable protrudes to the left. The final half-hipped roof is covered with large stone shingles.
