The hipped roof design of the original house incorporates bonnet tiles. There are overhanging eaves and PVC rainwater goods.
The windows are white uPVC double glazed in the original part of the house and brown stained effect uPVC windows in the new extension triple glazed.
The oil fired central heating provides underfloor heating (wet system) on the ground floor, first and second floor extensions. There are panelled radiators in the original part of the building.
