Fine roughcast walls on rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with cut-granite sills, and one-over-one timber sash windows having two-over-two timber sash windows to rear (north) elevation.

Appraisal
Occupying the position of an earlier counterpart indicated on historic editions of the Ordnance Survey, a house of modest size representing an element of the early twentieth-century domestic architectural legacy of New Ross continues to present an early aspect with the simple composition attributes surviving in place together with much of the original fabric, thereby upholding the pleasing impression made on the streetscape character of Michael Street.
