Shannon View is a three-bay, two-storey, over basement house, beneath a hipped slated roof. Built in c. 1830, as a residence for the local land manager, the exterior of the house includes prominent features such as roughcast rendered walls, timber sash windows with limestone sills, an arched doorcase with cobweb fanlight and flanking Ionic columns which is approached by stone steps. The property was fully refurbished in c. 1989 and redecorated in 2022. There was a new roof constructed using period slates in c. 1998 .

The light-filled accommodation is of generous and elegant proportions, as shown on the accompanying plans. Extending to about 5,059 sq ft (470 sq m), it is well laid out for modern day family living and entertaining.
