Now in use as house. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, red brick chimneystack and rooflights. Pitched slate roof to entrance canopy with terracotta ridge times and carved timber bargeboards. Red brick walls with yellow brick stringcourse and sill course. Camber-arched window openings with cut limestone sills, yellow brick voussoirs and timber casement windows.

Glanmire rectory, gate lodge, accompanying gates and post box form a pleasant grouping of socially significant buildings in the community. The attractive gate lodge retains its original character in features such as decorative ridge tiles and timber bargeboards and indicates the architectural quality of the main house beyond its gates.
