Larchfield House is a residence in the townland of Carrignamuck, situated 2.7 km (1.7 mi) north of Coachford village. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage describes it as built c. 1880, being a detached three-bay two-storey house, with gabled bays and a full height canted bay window. It is said to be typical of fashionable architectural style during the late nineteenth century.[1]

This particular area within Carrignamuck townland is 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 'Doctor's Crossroads'.

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