Description

38 and 39 Chaddock Street are a pair of small townhouses built around 1840, with some alterations. They are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with sandstone dressings and have a slate roof. Each house has a double-depth plan and is single-fronted, featuring long separate back extensions and a central through-lobby. The front elevation is two storeys high, while the rear rises to three storeys above cellars. The facade is symmetrical with five windows, a first-floor sill-band, a plain frieze, and a moulded gutter cornice.

The doorways are located to the left and right, accessed by two and three steps respectively. They feature round-headed architraves with set-in Tuscan quarter-columns, plain lintels, and semicircular fanlights with convex moulded surrounds. No. 38 has a six-panel door with a fanlight that includes radiating metal tracery, while No. 39 has been altered. The central lobby doorway is round-headed with a convex surround, including imposts, a panelled door, and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars, though it is currently blacked out.

At the ground floor, each house has one window, but at the first floor, No. 38 has two windows and No. 39 has three, including one above the lobby door. The windows at No. 38 are all sashed without glazing bars, while those at No. 39 are all 12-pane sashes. All windows have raised sills and wedge lintels, and the cellar windows also feature wedge lintels and gratings. A large linear multiple-flue chimney stack is located in the center. The rear and interior of the houses were not inspected. This pair forms part of an almost complete set of late Georgian lower-middle class houses on this street.
