Appraisal
Located within the attractive village of Feenagh, this modestly scaled semi-detached vernacular house is an integral element of the streetscape. The utilisation of traditional building materials including thatched roofing and the retention of some historic features including sash windows, help the building make a strong and positive effect on the visual appeal of the surrounding streetscape.
