Hipped slate and artificial slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings throughout, having render surrounds and with timber casement windows to first floor and two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows to ground floor front elevation, two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows to west elevation and to east elevation of return, timber casement windows to east elevation. Square-headed opening with render surround and timber panelled door with integral overlight. Rendered plinth wall and square-profile piers with wrought-iron railings and pedestrian gate.
Though missing some historic fabric, the form and proportions remain intact and are representative of eighteenth century urban domestic architecture. Plan form very similar to that of Eastville on same road (see 20907636), with which it forms an interesting pair. Visible from the road, makes architectural contribution to village of Ballynacorra.
