Oriented from east to west, the complex consists of surrounding walls, the first courtyard, the front hall, the second courtyard, the rear hall, and north and south wing rooms, totaling twenty-four rooms and making it quite large in scale. The front hall features a post-and-lintel construction style, while the rear hall and wing rooms adopt a through-tenon style.

The brackets, doors, windows, and spandrels inside the residence are carved with intricate designs of peonies, golden pheasants, and phoenixes. These carvings are exquisitely detailed, uniquely shaped, and beautifully formed. The door hood and brick carvings of Qingde Hall contain a wealth of inscriptions, which hold significant value for studying the local folklore, customs, and cultural heritage.
