Detached three-bay two-storey parochial house, dated 1845. To the rear of the building is a small single-storey return and a small (and possibly later) single-storey lean-to. The walls are finished in painted lined render with granite quoins, whilst the hipped roof is slated and has rendered chimneystacks. The entrance consists of a panelled timber door set within a granite portico, (said to have come from Lord Downshire’s house in Blessington), with Doric columns supporting a flat roof with projecting cornice with dentils below. Above the portico is an elliptical fanlight. The windows are flat-headed and have timber sash frames, either six over six or tripartite. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set within a relatively spacious garden enclosed from the roadside by a rendered wall with cast-iron carriage gates, with the church the house relates to, (St Joseph’s Roman Catholic church), situated just beyond to the south side.
