Hipped slate roof with over-sailing eaves, terracotta ridge tiles and finials, rendered chimneystacks and decorative eaves brackets. Rendered walls with plinth and stucco quoins.

This fine detached house, of elegant proportions, form and scale, is a building of importance within Mohill. Positioned on an elevated site over the town, it retains many fine features. The two-over-two timber sash windows, stucco dressings, terracotta roof details and eaves brackets are of technical interest and enhance the symmetrical design of this house.
