Description

Apple Acre is an early 19th-century double fronted house located on Church Street in Fenstanton. It is two storeys high and constructed of gault brick, topped with a hipped slate roof featuring end stacks and projecting eaves supported by paired modillions.

The front of the house includes three first-floor recessed hung sash windows with glazing bars, set in cambered gauged brick arches. On the ground floor, there are two casement garden windows, also with glazing bars and arched heads, positioned beside a central doorway. The doorcase is adorned with moulded pilasters and a frieze, leading to a deeply moulded two-panelled door topped by a rectangular fanlight with glazing bars.

Supporting the deep cornice are slender pierced wrought iron pilasters featuring a Greek anthemion motif. The property is enclosed by a shaped gault brick boundary wall, which includes four piers with pyramidal caps. The details of the doorcase are similar to those found at Providence Place, which dates to 1838.
