Description
This is an 18th-century house located on the west side of Petersham Road. It comprises a two-story main block, originally three bays wide arranged in a 1:1:1 configuration, with the centre bay projecting slightly. The building is constructed of brown brick with red brick dressings. A parapet with a simple open pediment sits above the centre bay, incorporating a small thermal window. Horizontal bands are present at the first-floor level and the parapet. A slated gambrel roof is concealed behind the parapet. Lower wings extend to the left and right of the main block.
