Set back from the promenade along the quayside of the harbour, which is protected from storms by a levee, the main frontage faces eastwards towards the ocean.The old fisherman's house abuts another house on its south gable. A narrow alleyway runs along the second gable, leading to the Lenn quarter. There is a terrace extending from the house towards the stone-walled garden, affording magnificent views over the sea.
Originally a single-storey structure, the house now comprises three levels. Built of coursed local rubble masonry, its main facade is white-rendered. To the east, the interior space is lit on both the ground and the first floors by three windows with dressed granite surrounds.
On the third and top floor, two hip roof dormers with slate cheeks harmoniously follow the roof pitch. The west-facing slope has three roof windows with views of the neighbouring roofs and the sea on the horizon. The north gable is of coursed rubble stone, while the western side is of a more conventional construction; these two walls are windowless.
