Glen Bevan's architectural history is of great interest. Here there are two houses within one. The original three-bay two-storey house was significantly added to in the nineteenth century. Further additions included the addition of a water tower. Glen Bevan's setting overlooking the River Maigue adds to the overall importance of the house. The exterior details combined with the interior importance of the house marks Glen Bevan out within the architectural heritage of County Limerick. The gate lodge, together with its entrance piers and gate, and the walled garden and arch are notable attendant structures associated with the demesne.
