Square-headed window openings (first floor) with concrete sills[?], and concealed dressings framing one-over-one timber sash windows having part exposed sash boxes.

A house representing an integral component of the early nineteenth-century built heritage of Béal an Mhuirthead [Belmullet]. Having been well maintained, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with quantities of the historic or original fabric including an Art Deco-detailed "shopfront" making a pleasing visual statement in Sráid na Bearaice Íochtair [Lower Barrack Street] at street level.
