Square-headed window openings, smooth rendered reveals, painted stone sills, painted timber two-over-two sliding sash windows, painted timber tripartite windows to west elevation, uPVC casements to north extension. Square-headed door opening to porch with overlight, sidelights and painted timber panelled door c. 1970.

Streamstown House, handsomely-proportioned, is a fine example of the developments in Irish rural architecture in the early-nineteenth century. The attached outbuilding, successive building phases on the site, and a collection of outbuildings are important in its context.
