Description
Canute House is an early 19th-century house located on the north side of Canewdon High Street. It is constructed of red brick and features a red plain tiled roof. The house has a left rear chimney stack made of red brick with three diagonal shafts, while the right return has a similar chimney stack with two shafts. The building stands two storeys high, with a prominent two-storey gable on the right side and a smaller feature gable on the left. Both gables are moulded and have dentilled detailing, and there is a parapet verge on the left return.
On the first floor, there are two small paned casement windows arranged in a 1:1 pattern, with gauged brick arches and labels above. The ground floor includes a small paned bay shop window on the left, and a window matching the first floor on the right. To the right of the shop bay, there is a vertically boarded door.
