    The house is sited on the side of a hill overlooking the other orchard holdings to the east and the Princes Highway. It is a gabled weatherboarded and verandahed house which is distinguished among other contemporary orchard houses by the extent of its return bullnose-profile verandah and the gable set into the verandah at the entrance. The roof is clad with corrugated iron and the chimneys of brick, with corbelled tops.
