Symmetrical, two storey, double fronted, cement rendered house with bay windows each side.
On 18 June 1858 Crouch & Wilson called for tenders for the erection of a cottage residence in Powlett Street for Raphael Alexander. The rate books from 1859 to 1868 give fluctuating descriptions of the house as having between 5 and 7 rooms but from 1864 settle at 6 rooms. In 1869 it is listed as having 12 rooms, coinciding with a new owner, Henry "Money" Miller.
