Ruled-and-lined render to walls with tooled stone plinth course and quoins. Oriel windows to ground floor of façade. Timber sash windows. Paired windows to first floor. Round-headed door opening with fanlight, timber panelled door and limestone threshold step, flanked by engaged columns. House bounded by cast-iron railings on rendered plinth.

Bella Vista is a fine, classically-proportioned house, set within its own landscaped grounds off St. Mary's Road. The house retains much of its original fabric including the fine, elaborate cast-iron ridge cresting and flanking finials. The paired timber sash windows over the entrance way along with the cantilevered oriel windows elevate this structure from others within Edenderry.
