House of two storeys with cellars and double mansard attics was built in 1787; two bricks in the back wall are inscribed IL 1787 (for John Leer) and HL 1787.

The front room on the first floor has a moulded dado and an original fireplace with marble architrave, frieze with applied swags and a moulded dentil cornice; another original fireplace of less elaboration remains in the rear room; alongside of the front room is a small dressing room above the entrance hall.
