Garden to front of house bounded by random limestone wall and gate with square piers with pyramidal caps. Single-storey outbuildings with pitched slate roofs to north and east of house, forming courtyard enclosed to west by rendered walls with square-plan gate piers with wrought-iron gates.

It retains original fabric including windows, stone sills, cast-iron rainwater goods and outbuildings. With the Church of Ireland church opposite, it provides an attractive local streetscape.
