Description
Harvey House is a house built around 1720-1730, with alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed of red brick in English bond and features a plain tiled roof with two 20th-century brick gable stacks. The house is designed in an L-shape and has two storeys with a five-bay front arranged in a 2:1:2 pattern, where the central bay is slightly advanced and has its own gable. There is a first-floor band and a wooden eaves cornice with dentil detailing. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door with wood panelled reveals and a 20th-century pedimented surround, flanked by pairs of glazing bar sash windows. The first floor has five similar windows, all with segmental brick heads and keyblocks. Inside, the house retains a dogleg staircase from around 1720, featuring knopped and turned balusters, six-panel doors with pedimented overdoors, and fine contemporary fireplaces along with cupboard joinery that includes egg and dart and acanthus details.
