This house, built as part of a terrace of six houses, is an attractive small-scale building that is of social and historic interest, representing an early form of local authority housing in the locality. Constructed of fine materials, the house includes early red brick to ground floor, with variety added to the façade through the use of roughcast to the first floor. The house retains many original features and materials, including timber sash fenestration (multi-pane to rear (south-east) elevation), and a slate roof. The house, together with the remaining houses in the terrace (11814065 - 8, 79/KD-19-14-65 - 8, 79), is an attractive feature on the streetscape of the road leading into Naas from the north-east.
