Pitched scolloped straw-thatched roof, having recent non-functioning regular brick pegs to eaves, and rendered chimneystack. Painted smooth-rendered walls. Square-headed openings with concrete sills and replacement two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows and replacement timber battened door. Extension has pitched slate roof and rendered walls. Set on elevated site on An Chruit [Cruit Island] with four single and two-storey outbuildings to west. One outbuilding has part-lean-to, part rounded concrete roof; other is single-storey with loft, doorway to latter reached by steps that overlie two storage openings.
