Description
No. 2 Conyngham Road is a villa, now used as an office, built around 1840, likely designed by Richard Lane, who also laid out Victoria Park in 1836. The building features white-painted render, which has replaced the original stucco, and a hipped slate roof. It has a roughly rectangular plan oriented east-west, with a short service wing at the west end.
In the late Georgian classical style, the villa is two storeys high and has three bays, with a symmetrical design where the centre bay is slightly recessed, along with the one-bay service wing. Architectural details include a plinth, a deep first-floor sill-band, and prominent bracketed eaves. The central rectangular porch is supported by Ionic columns arranged distyle in antis, and features a plain frieze, a moulded cornice, and a blocking course.
On the ground floor, there is one tall 15-pane sashed window on each side of the porch, while the first floor has three 12-pane sashed windows, except for the first bay, which contains a false window. The service wing has blocked or blind windows. The left return wall has a similar three-bay arrangement with matching fenestration. The rear, or garden front, features tripartite sashed windows on both floors in the centre, flanked by two 2-storey segmental bows, each with similar windows. The interior has not been inspected.
