Description

Bosco House is a house that has been converted into multiple dwellings. Externally, it is largely from around 1830, having been remodeled from an earlier house and possibly incorporating a late 18th-century coach house and stable range as a rear wing. The interior underwent further remodeling around 1880 and was altered around 1990. The building features stucco with stone quoins, slate-hung at the rear, and a slate roof.

The exterior is two storeys high with a three-window range on the entrance front. There is a doorway in a gabled porch towards the right, with two three-light mullioned windows to its left and a squared bay window to the right, all topped with hoodmoulds. The garden front has three gables, with ogee-headed lights to the mullioned windows in the outer gables and a full-height bow window in the central gable. The rear wing, which may have been the former coach house and stables, has largely renewed fenestration but retains a blocked round opening at first-floor level on each side, which may have originally served as a pitching eye.

Inside, there is a wood-panelled entrance hall featuring an early 18th-century-style staircase with turned balusters and top lighting. Some 18th-century plasterwork, including wall panelling and cornice, survives, although much of the internal detail appears to be from the late 19th century.
