Description
Stuart House is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house, built in 1754 as indicated by the datestone, and extended in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings and features polychrome brick, topped with old plain-tile roofs and brick stacks. It has a two-unit plan that extends to the rear and stands two storeys high with an attic.
The front of the house has four windows and includes a plinth and a stone eaves cove, with regular bands of larger stones. The entrance is located to the right of the centre and features a four-panel door with a small canopy above a renewed lintel. There is also an opening to the left of centre that has been a doorway and has a renewed lintel. The outer casements of the windows have segmental stone arches, while the first floor features two-light casements. Most openings maintain roll-moulded arrises, and there is a central datestone inscribed "N.B./1754".
The roof has flanking stacks and two two-light roof dormers adorned with 19th-century ornamental bargeboards. The left gable wall includes a projection for a bread oven. The rear range, added in the 19th century, is made of buff brick with polychrome decoration. The interior has not been inspected.
