The dower house is a log building with wooden cladding. The main facade has clapboard in the style used on Vestlandet (the Norwegian southwest coast). The other walls have vertical board on board cladding with chamfered edges. The house was most likely built during two periods of the 19th century, the oldest part very early during the 19th or just at the turn of the 18th century. This assumption is based on detailing of the main entrance and the window surrounds which are typical of that time.

The two storey log storehouse is elevated from the ground by pillars and has vertical external cladding with some boards much wider than others. On top of the shingle roof is a small turret with a dinner bell. The door has a double herringbone pattern, which is enhanced by being painted in two colours.
