Boultry is an intact Irish vernacular farmhouse, constructed in a traditional style. Its current occupant understands that it was originally a single-storey dwelling onto which a second floor was added, quite some time ago. Its timber sash windows, with two-over-two panes, compliment the battened and flat panelled doors, giving character to the symmetrical house. The associated outbuildings and wrought-iron gates complete the complex.
