Description

The building is a house and Post Office located on High Street in Repton, dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of red brick with painted stone dressings and features a plain tile roof with lateral brick stacks. The exterior includes a moulded dentil cornice and a blocking course. The building has three storeys and a chamfered plinth.

The west elevation consists of three bays, with the central bay highlighted by a giant recessed round arch. There is a Tuscan Doric doorcase with an open pediment, a panelled door, and a traceried fanlight. To the right, there is a 20th-century shop front, while to the left is a glazing bar sash window with keyed channelled wedge lintels. In front of the building, there are bowed cast iron railings.

On the first floor, there is a central glazing bar sash window set in a moulded architrave with a sill band, flanked by two additional glazing bar sashes, all featuring keyed channelled wedge lintels. The upper floor has three smaller windows that match those below. The interior reportedly includes a stone flagged entrance hall with the original staircase, a plaster coved recess in the left-hand room, and a Hopton Wood marble chimneypiece.
