Description

St Olave's House, now part of St Olave's School, is a house built in 1813 for David Russell, a solicitor, and has been altered in the 20th century. The building is constructed of stucco and features hipped concrete tile roofs.

The main block is symmetrical, consisting of two storeys and three bays. The windows are glazing bar sashes, with the ground floor windows being taller. The porch has a sprocketed hipped roof and includes a divided four-panel door with pilaster jambs, as well as a semicircular overlight that incorporates a lamp. To the left of the main block, there is a single-storey, one-bay addition from the 20th century, which has a coped parapet and a tripartite glazing bar sash window. To the right, a two-storey, two-bay wing features glazing bar sashes and has a small square window situated between the first-floor windows.

Inside, the inner porch door is made of oak and is partly glazed. The doors leading off the stair hall are made of mahogany, featuring six panels with margins formed by raised mouldings. The dog-leg stair has an open string, turned mahogany balusters, and a wreathed mahogany handrail. Originally, the house was known as Clifton Grove when it was built.
