house

Detached five-bay two-storey house with dormer attic, built c.1730, now vacant. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and rendered parapet. Red brick walls to front elevation, rendered walls to the sides and rear. Carved limestone doorcase with swan-neck pediment above, having replacement door, approached by limestone steps. Moulded limestone sills with replacement timber sash windows. Retaining many interior features and materials, such as decorative plaster work, timber panelling and a fine staircase.

The building is a particularly important contributor to the architectural heritage of Cork, as few early eighteenth-century domestic buildings survive. This former house retains many interesting features and materials, such as the carved limestone pedimented door case, moulded limestone sills, and interior fixtures and fittings. The interior features include timber panelled doors, shutters, and floor to ceiling paneling, and elaborate stucco work.
