Description
No. 37 Great George's Road is a small villa built in the mid-19th century that has undergone some alterations. The building features red and yellow brick in Flemish bond, creating a speckled appearance, with sandstone dressings painted cream and a hipped slate roof. It has a double-depth, double-fronted plan, along with an added service wing at the rear left corner.
The villa is two storeys high with a cellar and has three symmetrical windows. The exterior includes a plinth, rusticated quoins, a plain frieze, and a prominent moulded cornice. At the center is a distinctive tall single-storey porch with convex sides and a flat roof. This porch features a round-headed doorway with a moulded surround and cresting at the top, along with double doors that have round-headed panels and a plain fanlight. Above the porch, there is a round-headed sash window with margin panes and a moulded architrave, which also has floating cresting on the frieze above.
On each floor, flanking the porch are 4-pane sashes with raised bracketed sills and moulded architraves. The ground floor sashes are taller and adorned with large elaborate cresting and small brackets in the upper corners, while the first-floor sashes are similarly detailed but with cresting on the frieze. The villa has two large square chimneys on the side slopes, both featuring moulded cornices.
The left side wall includes a sash window with a flat-arched head made of gauged brick. The right side wall has a large canted bay window for the front room and a slightly smaller rectangular bay for the rear room, both with sashed glazing and moulded cornices. The windows above these bays match those at the front of the building. The rear and interior of the villa were not inspected.
