Limewashed roughcast battered walls with rusticated rendered piers to ends. Square-headed door opening (porch) with concealed dressings framing replacement timber half-door. Square-headed window openings ("cheeks") with concrete or rendered sills, and concealed dressings framing timber fittings. Square-headed window openings with concrete or rendered sills, and rendered surrounds framing one-over-one timber sash windows having exposed sash boxes. Set perpendicular to road.

A farmhouse identified as an important component of the vernacular heritage of County Sligo by such attributes as the alignment perpendicular to the road; the rectilinear plan form with a windbreak-like porch; the construction in unrefined local fieldstone displaying a feint battered silhouette; the disproportionate bias of solid to void in the massing; and the high pitched roof showing a replenished water reed thatch finish. Having been well maintained, the form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the original fabric, thus upholding the character or integrity of a farmhouse making a picturesque visual statement in a sylvan street scene.
