Detached multiple-bay single-storey former coach house, built c.1820, with five-bay two-storey wing added to south-east c.1840. Extended to east by lean-to addition with gabled single-bay projection . Now in use as office. Pitched slate roofs with cast-iron rainwater goods and recent rooflights. Coursed squared limestone walls with dressed quoins. Square-headed openings with red brick block-and-start surrounds, limestone sills, six-over-six pane sliding sash windows to ground floor and timber casement windows to first floor. uPVC windows to extension. Square-headed openings to south elevation with fixed light windows . Square-headed door opening with red brick block-and-start surrounds, overlights and recent timber doors. Coursed rubble stone wall with barrel coping to north-west and gate to north which once led to walled garden of Dundanion Castle in which a petrol station now stands.
The long façade of this building with its red brick window surrounds and Cork limestone walls contributes to the streetscape of the area. It is also a mark of the status of Dundanion Castle that a service building would have been so well finished. The remains of the garden wall to the north add to its setting and context.
