Square-headed door opening with moulded rendered entablature over, 1928, on consoles and glazed timber panelled door. Road fronted with concrete footpath to front.
Appraisal
An appealing, modest-scale house of balanced proportions, built as one of a pair (with 22801020/WD-05-01-20), which retains its original form and fabric, despite conversion of the ground floor to an alternative purpose, and which contributes to the streetscape value of Ballymacarbry. The house was, according to local sources, originally built as a school master's house, which is of particular local significance.
