Description

Taleifion is a two-storey, double-fronted house built from large squared blocks of quarried stone arranged in regular courses. It features a renewed slate roof with wide eaves, and it is part of a range with No 2. The house has a stone end stack on the left side. The central entrance includes a replacement panel door with an overlight above it. The windows throughout the house are also replacements in their original openings, with the lower left window being larger. On the left gable end, which faces Dublin Lane, there is a blocked doorway and a blocked window to its left. The middle storey and attic have replacement windows as well. An added outshut has a blocked door facing Dublin Lane on the side of the house and features enlarged and replaced windows at the rear, which is pebble-dashed and painted blue. The property has not been inspected.
