Appraisal
An appealing, modest-scale house of balanced proportions, built as one of a pair (with 22801005/WD-05-01-05), which retains most of its original form 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.
