Attributed to the renowned architect Richard Morrison and built in the “Villa” manner, a style that was popular in the early 19th century the front elevation of Kilpeacon House has an impressive curved balustrade porch at the centre with Wyatt windows on either side. The highly ornate interior is approached through an oval entrance hall which leads to a central stair hall lit by a glass lantern from above. The reception rooms are exceptionally fine with original carved marble chimney pieces, ornate plaster ceilings, mahogany doors with ornate architraves and pitch pine floors.
