Appraisal
This country house is of a robust architectural design. An interesting feature of the house is the location of the main entrance on the side elevation. The coach house yard and outbuilding make a noteworthy contribution to the setting of the house. Located on an elevated site on the Cavan/Leitrim border, Kilbrackan House and ancillary structures make a positive impact on the landscape.
