The house is a square two-storey block in red brick with 7 bays on each side with a hipped tiled roof.[1] The nearby two-storey stable block is grade II* listed and now converted into flats.[2]
The fire left the orangery, stable block, kitchen wing, and a solitary Italianate tower.[7] The estate of 4,984 acres (2,017 ha) was in part made public once again insofar as it contributed back to Ockham and Wisley Commons but otherwise was auctioned on 21 October 1958.[8] The surviving buildings, in part, were restored in the 1970s.[9]
