Doorways have pilasters to cornices above mullion overlights, steeply ramped panels above with date pads and flanking dolphins, and panelled 2-leaf doors with a raised central diamond. Ground-floor bays to the gables with a central cross window, and a balustraded balcony with a carved frieze below; narrower first-floor bay has a swept roof to a finial, removed from No.29, and small second-floor 4/4-pane sashes either side of the bay roof below an overhanging timber-framed gable top on corbels.

Stone eaves; the front roof extends sideways to form a projecting end dormer, which includes the corbelled gable-end stacks. INTERIOR not inspected. SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: attached front garden walls and piers with ball finials. The early part of a development influenced by Norman Shaw's Bedford Park, 1881.
