The impressive tomb, constructed during the Lodi period, reflects an Indo-Persian architectural style. It is a modest, square-shaped structure entered through a pointed arched gateway. The façade features pointed niches, while the southern side is marked by two sandstone projections. The parapet is decorated with traditional Kangoora patterns. The tomb is crowned with a bulbous dome set upon an octagonal base, both adorned with Kangoora designs. A lotus motif sits atop the dome, adding to its aesthetic appeal. The entire structure is built using random rubble masonry, Delhi quartzite, and is finished with lime plaster, showcasing a blend of durability and elegance.
