Rodeen Cottage

Detached three-bay two-pile single-storey over basement house, built c.1855, having two-storey block to northwest. Pitched M-profile roof to main block, re-slated to rear and with pitched slate roof to northwest block. Rendered chimneystacks. Pebble-dash render to walls. Margined timber casement windows to front façade and basement, with timber sliding sash windows to all other elevations. Round-headed window to rear lighting staircase. Limestone sills. Timber panelled front door having carved timber doorcase, ornate fanlight and side-lights with uPVC porch door to front, and limestone steps up over basement. Stone outbuildings forming yard to north.

Although the main block of this house is designed as a single-storey cottage, the house is deceptively large and appears to have been extended at least once. The windows are an important feature of the external appearance and character of the house and the retention of all the timber sashes and front casement windows is of importance. The front doorcase is particularly fine for a building of this size and the glazing of the fanlight and sidelights is of a very high quality.
