Description
Ivy House is a house from the early 19th century, constructed of red brick and partly rendered, featuring a slate hipped roof with a wide eaves overhang. The building has two storeys and consists of two main blocks. The front block is fully rendered and includes corner pilaster strips. The front features double hung sash windows with small panes on both floors. The north side has four double hung sashes, one of which is blocked, maintaining a similar style. The rear block is primarily made of exposed red brick, with the west side rendered. This side includes a bow window with curved double hung sashes with small panes and an inserted door on the ground floor. The north side features a five-sided bay with double hung sashes that have central vertical glazing bars. There is a stack at the ridge line.
