Attached three-bay two-storey house, extant 1950[?], originally detached on an L-shaped plan with single-bay full-height gabled projecting end bay. Reroofed. Replacement pitched artificial slate roof on an L-shaped plan with ridge tiles, timber bargeboards to gable, and uPVC rainwater goods on timber eaves boards on roughcast eaves. Roughcast walls on rendered base. Square-headed central door opening with concealed dressings framing glazed timber panelled door. Square-headed window openings in tripartite arrangement centred on square-headed window opening (first floor) with concrete sills, and concealed dressings framing six-over-six timber sash windows having two-over-two sidelights centred on four-over-four timber sash window (first floor). Set back from line of street in landscaped grounds with wrought iron railings to perimeter centred on wrought iron gate.
A house representing an integral component of the twentieth-century domestic built heritage of Westport. Having been well maintained, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the original fabric, thereby upholding the character or integrity of a house making a pleasing visual statement in the streetscape in Castlebar Street.
