Description
14 and 16 Villiers Road is a pair of semi-detached houses built in 1856. They are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and feature a steeply pitched Welsh slate roof with brick stacks on both the left and right sides. The building has two storeys, a basement, and an attic, with three bays where the outer bays project slightly and each has a facing gable.
The exterior includes rusticated quoin strips, and the paired doors at the center are recessed within a rusticated stucco surround topped with a cornice. The door for No. 14 is a four-panel round-headed door with glazed upper panels, while No. 16 has a half-glazed door. Both doors are accessed by six stone steps. On either side of the doors are timber canted bay windows; No. 14 features a two-light center casement with one-light flanking casements, while No. 16 has 20th-century lights, each topped with a slated pent roof.
On the first floor, there are three two-light casements set in rusticated surrounds, with the left window having attached shutters. The attic windows are also two-light in rusticated surrounds, featuring round-arched heads with keystones. The left gable showcases a projecting cut bargeboard with a pendant, and there is a dormer at the center with a four-pane, two-light casement and a cut bargeboard on the gable. The interior has not been inspected.
