The original station building is a two-storey Victorian Italianate building, originally designed as a combined station building and residence for the Station Master with offices and facilities on the ground floor, and a residence above. The building was originally face brick but has been painted, and features a symmetrical composition of three upper windows and three doors under featuring rendered arch surrounds. The other platform's building (1914) features a standard-design long brick island platform building with attached refreshment rooms.The buildings feature a gabled corrugated iron roof with clerestory roof to the refreshment rooms, decorative gable ends and rendered chimneys.
