Rendered, ruled and lined walls with rendered "bas-relief" strips to ends. Square-headed central door opening with threshold, and concealed dressings framing timber panelled door having overlight.

Appraisal
A house representing an integral component of the domestic built heritage of Duncannon with the architectural value of the composition suggested by such attributes as the compact rectilinear plan form; the diminishing in scale of the openings on each floor producing a feint graduated tiered visual effect; and the high pitched roof showing a small cut slate finish. Having been well maintained, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the historic or original fabric, thus upholding the character or integrity of a house making a pleasing visual statement in a seaside village street scene.
