A two-storey pale-stone Italianate main building arranged around a rectangular formal courtyard: a colonnaded arcade of round columns and semicircular arches at ground level, a continuous first-floor balustraded terrace, and rows of tall rectangular windows. The courtyard is paved with light stone, formal clipped lawn beds and a circular two-tier fountain at its centre. Rooflines are low and clad in metal; overall surfaces are finished in cream-coloured stone and plaster.
