No 61 Dalgety Street is a single storey house constructed in painted brick and rendered brick with a hipped and gable corrugated iron roof. It is a fine expression of the Federation Bungalow style.

A vertical timber balustrade spans between the posts. The half-timbered thrust bay features a set of casement windows under a sunhood. There is a central door and hopper light flanked by sidelights and a set of casement windows. The roofscape features a pair of rendered chimneys. Render bands run across the facade.
