Grandchester Sawmills is located on the southern side of Symes Street in the town of Grandchester.
The sawmill is set back from the road on a sloping piece of land which backs onto the Main Line railway.
Grandchester railway station is visible from the rear of the sawmill.

The sawmill machinery is housed in a gabled structure with mono-pitched roof extension at one end under which the locomotive boiler sits minus its undercarriage.
The sawn timber roof structure is supported on round timber posts.
It is not enclosed by any walls.
The mill is powered by a locomotive boiler from Walkers - built C17 No.922 and a steam engine.
The boiler has a name plate attached to one side reading "Old Reliable".

The sawmill is driven by a belt and pulley system.
All saws, except for one small electric saw, are powered by the steam engine.
A small pyramidal silo stands to the rear of the main sawmill structure which is used to store the sawdust for the boiler.

Three other structures stand on the property.
A timber house to the north-west of the mill, a small timber building directly in front (north) of the mill bearing evidence it was once a petrol station and another small timber structure to north-east of the sawmill.
