Hope House

Hope House is a house built in 1714, featuring a black header bond with red Flemish bond dressings and a black glazed pantiled roof. The structure is two stories tall with attics and consists of seven bays, arranged in a single pile, with later cat-slide additions at the rear. There are also two single-storey mid-18th century additions on the east and west sides.

The three outer bays contain three ground floor and two first floor windows, along with one blocked window that has painted glazing bars. The windows are sashes with glazing bars, and the ground floor features rubbed brick arches while the first floor has soldier arches. The red brick dressings include aprons below the first floor windows.

The central entrance bay has a wooden door architrave supported by raised quoined piers and console brackets, featuring three central keystones, dentils, and a segmental pediment above a six-panel raised and fielded door. The first floor has a sash window with glazing bars. Additional red brick quoins and a red brick panel surround the door and window. The house is topped with a wooden modillioned cornice and pediment, while the outer bays have a brick dentil cornice. The steeply pitched roof includes four attic dormers with sashes under triangular and segmental wooden pedimented gables, and raised brick parapets with tumbling, along with two end stacks and one off-centre stack.

The two-bay additions to the sides feature two sashes with glazing bars, a brick dentil cornice, and red pantiled roofs. Inside, the west addition contains a panelled room from the mid-18th century, featuring a lugged fireplace and overmantel. The central staircase has a simple dado handrail, and the room on the east side has a modillion cornice from the late 18th century.
