Red brick Flemish bond walling, chamfered plinth, moulded brick string courses, decorative terracotta panels above ground and first floor windows. Square-headed window openings to ground and first floor, round-headed window openings to attic, quadrant-moulded brick jambs and sandstone lintels to ground and first floor, brick arches with terracotta decorative keystones to attic, continuous sandstone sills, uPVC casement windows. Square-headed door opening, quadrant-moulded brick jambs and sandstone lintel, painted timber four panel door with brass door furniture, plain-glazed overlight, geometric tiled porch, half-glazed panelled inner door, two granite threshold steps.

Skilled craftsmanship has not been spared when embellishing the brickwork of this house which remains substantially unaltered. String courses, keystones, panels, window and door surrounds and corbelled eaves have all been richly adorned making it and its neighbour artistically and architecturally of significance to the historic streetscape of Dundalk. The iron boundary railings are also of note.
