Description
Prospect House is a mid-18th century brick house built in Flemish bond with a plain tile roof. It features a hallway entry and a service wing to the left. The building has two storeys and four first-floor windows, with a single-storey wing on the left side. The right side of the house has a symmetrical facade, highlighted by a six-panel door set in a rusticated door-case. This door-case includes a double keystone, a foliate frieze, and consoles with a fish-scale motif that support a dentilled pediment. The windows have replacement sashes with glazing bars. The service wing has a 20th-century six-pane door with an overlight. The house has gable coping, and there are stacks at the right end and on the ridge.
