An attractive, well-maintained and well-proportioned early nineteenth-century house occupying a prominent site to the west-end of Ballynacarrigy. It is one of the few buildings in the village that retains its early fabric and natural slate roof. The 'belt-buckle'-style quoins to the corners is a trait shared with a number of buildings in Mullingar Town and may be a local fashion at the time. This building remains an important component of the streetscape of Ballynacarrigy, terminating the Main Street to the west.
