Description
Highfield Villa is a house, now converted into flats, built in 1857. It's constructed of red brick in a stretcher bond pattern, with stone detailing and a slate roof. The house stands two storeys high with a basement, and has four bays; the left bay projects forward as a gabled wing, and the entrance bay is prominent. The front door is four-panelled, with the upper two panels glazed, and is set within a carved stone surround, featuring console brackets and a cornice. To the right of the entrance are two windows with segmental arches, all windows having stone architraves. The first floor has three windows with original four-pane sashes. The projecting left bay features a deep, canted bay window on the ground floor and a paired window above. A deep eave cornice, decorated with modillions, runs around the house and there are bargeboards to the left gable, along with ridge stacks located centre and right. The interior has not been inspected. The house was first occupied by Benjamin Russel, a valuer.
