Semi-detached two-bay single-storey house with dormer attic house, built c.1900, gabled breakfront to front (north-west). Recent single-storey addition to front and side (south-west) elevations. Recent flat-roofed two-storey addition to rear (south-east). Pitched slate roof with uPVC clad eaves, rendered chimneystack and uPVC rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with rendered plinth having ceramic vents and rendered platband to breakfront. Square-headed window openings with stone sills having uPVC casement windows throughout. Round-headed porch opening to front elevation to interior of recent addition, having recessed square-headed door opening with uPVC door and overlight.

Built as a one of a pair, which forms part of a group of three pairs, this house is one of a number of similarly designed houses built overlooking the Owenboy River in the late nineteenth century. These houses are a reminder of the fashion at the time for sea side living, both full time and for holidays. It has retained several historic features including a well-proportioned gabled breakfront, slate roof and original fenestration pattern.
