Description
Prospect House is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with an extension added in the late 18th century and possibly an earlier core. It is constructed of brick and features an old tile roof. The building is two stories high with an attic and has three bays, along with a lower two-story addition at the rear. The central entrance consists of a six-panel top-lit door set within a 20th-century replica Georgian doorcase and moulded hood. On either side of the door are 16-pane sash windows with rubbed brick arches. Above the door, there is a 12-pane sash window, with additional 16-pane sash windows on either side. The house has brick dentilled eaves, a half-hipped roof to the left, an external stack to the right, and two hipped dormers with two lights each.
