Former manse, still in residential use, built in 1790 with an addition in 1835. It originally came with 20 acres of land, only some of which remains under its ownership today, including a walled garden to the east (NO59NW0094). It is a three-storey, basement and attic, three-bay, rectangular-plan original manse building with a two-storey and basement, two-bay addition forming an L-plan. The south and east elevation are harled and the north and west are of pink and grey tooled coursed granite with cherry cocking. There is a base course and eaves course to the 1835 addition. The south entrance elevation has the gabled 1835 addition advanced to the west and has a single-storey porch in the re-entrant angle with a panelled timber door and decorative fanlight. Predominantly 12-pane timber sash and case windows are used. The grey slate roof, graded to the 1835 addition, has a lead ridge and there are stone skews, cast-iron rainwater goods, coped gablehead stacks with circular cans to 1790 house and a coped paired diamond end gablehead stack and single diamond end wallhead stack with octagonal can to the 1835 addition. To the north is a single storey, U-plan former stables, constructed from pink granite rubble with tooled long and short dressings, boarded timber doors, timber 6-pane windows with top hoppers, a slate roof with a lead ridge and cast-iron rainwater goods. Inside there are rubble walls and a timber roof, and nine stone and timber nesting boxes. To the north-east of the house are square-plan bullfaced granite gatepiers with semi-spherical caps, flanked by a short section of bullfaced wall with bullfaced coping stepped up.
