Amaliegade 19 is constructed in brick with three storeys over a walk-out basement. It consists of a six-bay front wing towards the street, a perpendicular side wing and a rear wing. The front side on the building is plastered and white-painted with a cornice band above the ground floor and a modillioned cornice under the roof. The four central bays are visually brought together by a through-going sill under the windows on the first floor and a Vitruvian scroll frieze between the windows of the first and second floor. The main entrance in the bay furthest to the right is topped by a hood mould supported by corbels. A similar hood mould is placed above the ground floor window furthest to the left to create an impression of symmetry. The pitched tile roof features a two-bay dormer from 1840 flanked by two traditional dormer windows. The yard side of the building is finished with iron vitriol yellow lime mortar. The side wing and rear wing have monopitched tile roofs. [22]
