Alexander McIntosh bought the house in 1882 and the late F. J. Crowe purchased it from the MacIntosh Estate in 1951. The house is built of large weatherboards and has a steeply pitched gabled roof. A smaller gable breaks the line of the front verandah roof. The verandah is decorated with cast iron lace valances and brackets and has wooden posts and a brick floor. The eastern side has been enclosed with gauze. French doors with wooden shutters, brass door knobs and curved glass open onto the front verandah.
