Description

Oakleigh Guest House, including the attached garden boundary wall to the northeast, is a house dating from the mid to late 18th century, with an extension from around the 1840s. The building is constructed of red brick, with the front range from the 1840s being stuccoed. It features slate roofs with gabled ends; the front range has deep eaves and bracketed verges. There are brick gable-end and axial stacks, with the front range rendered and adorned with moulded cornices.

The house has a double-depth plan, where the original 18th-century section is the brick range at the back. In the 1840s, a two-room plan range was added at the front, featuring a central entrance and a service wing on the left side. The 18th-century garden boundary wall extends to the rear.

The exterior is two storeys high, with a symmetrical three-bay south front. The first-floor windows have moulded eared architraves with keyblocks, although the sashes have been replaced. The ground floor features two large canted bay windows with cornices and sashes that do not have glazing bars, with the left bay window's sashes replaced. The central doorway is framed by a Tuscan portico and has a six-panel door with an overlight. To the left is a two-storey service wing that includes a 20th-century glazed conservatory at the front.

At the rear, the parallel brick range is the original 18th-century house, with the right-hand bay projecting. The centre has a tall stair window with an intricate pattern of glazing bars, and to the left on the ground floor is a canted bay window complete with sash windows that have glazing bars. The garden at the rear features a tall red brick garden boundary wall with coping bricks, and the garden has been divided into two sections, now under separate ownerships. The interior has not been inspected.
