The house is located within Carrignamuck townland in an area known as Larchfield, as indicated on both the 1842 and 1901 surveyed OS maps. The property was previously the residence and surgery of a local General Practitioner, and this is reflected in the crossroads adjoining the entrance being known as the 'doctor's crossroads'.

Today, it is a private residence, and is not accessible to the public.
