Description

The Lake Hotel is a substantial two-storey villa built around 1850, constructed from stone rubble with ashlar dressings and featuring a low-pitched hipped slate roof with flat eaves. The long entrance front includes marginal glazed casements and a large double pilastered enclosed porch that has a four-panel double door and a deep entablature, with a tripartite pilastered window above. There is a slight break in the front with four windows on the left side. The west end of the house features a canted projection with marginal glazed casements and one similar window on the right-hand set-back part. French windows are present on the ground floor. A tent roof trellis verandah extends to the south front, which includes later 19th-century bays.
