Architecture
editThe building is in four stories over a raised cellar. The nine-bay facade is rendered white with rusticated finishing on the ground floor. A gateway is located in the central bay and the two outer bays. The windows in the two slightly projecting outer bays are topped by rounded pediments on the first floor and the seven central windows are topped by a frieze. The rook features seven dormer windows.[1]
The gateway opens to a small courtyard. The two perpendicular side wings are newer than the front wing but it is not known exactly when they were built. The rear wing was built in 1858.[1]
