Detached three-bay single-storey with half-dormer attic house, built c.1890, having shallow lean-to porch to eastern end bay. Pitched slate roof having central brick chimneystack, sections of cast-iron rainwater goods. Lime washed rubble stone walls. Two-over-two timber sash windows with stone sills. Sheeted timber door and plain glazed overlight bisected by single glazing bar. Set back from the road behind hedge with large square-plan gate pier and replacement gate. Rubble stone and corrugated-iron outbuilding in close proximity to rear.
A small house of standardised design of the type built by local authorities from 1883 onwards under the Labourers Acts, their form and siting derived from vernacular traditions. The house is characteristed by a simplicity of form and detail and is a largely unaltered example of its building type. Solidly constructed it retains its historic appearance, the historic windows in characteristic arrangement with upper level gable windows, along with roughcast and whitewashed exterior with slate roof and windbreak porch. It makes a strong contribution to the landscape setting to the west of Bailieborough.
