Description
Villa, now a nursing home, dating from 1859, likely designed by TE Owen. The villa is stuccoed with a steep-pitch Welsh slate roof and rendered stacks located to the left and centrally to the right. It is two storeys high with an attic and basement, arranged over four bays, and has an asymmetrical facade. Rusticated quoin strips are present. A central five-stone step arrangement leads to a projecting two-storey porch with a facing stone coped gable. The porch features a two-leaf, four-panel door, a pointed fanlight within a chamfered stone surround, and a pointed dripstone with head stops. A half-glazed French casement with pointed glazing to the upper panels is located on the right return of the porch. To the left is a canted mullioned stone bay with three lancet-headed casements on the front and one each side; the mullions extend down to the basement with matching lights, covered by a tiled pent roof. The first floor has a pair of stone mullioned, three-pane, lancet-headed casements with chamfered stone surrounds. To the right is a similar four-light stone mullioned casement and a two-pane casement to the attic. The right return features similar lancet-headed, stone mullioned casements with chamfered stone surrounds. On the right side is a two-storey canted stone mullioned bay with cusped pointed lights, three to the front, and two flanking quatrefoil panels to the apron, all beneath a slate pent roof.
