Description

This is a mid-18th century house, remodelled and extended in the early to mid-19th century. It is built of Flemish bond brick, with a section of random bond brick to the left side wall and flared brick headers to the right side wall. The roof is tiled, with brick stacks. The house has a double-depth plan and is two storeys and an attic, with a three-window front. The front door has a reeded architrave and is made up of three panels with a glazed top panel, and is set within a porch dated approximately 1965. The early 19th-century windows have soldier arches and a coved 18th-century cornice above them. The windows are three-light transomed with cusped heads. There's an 18th-century gabled dormer with a two-light leaded casement. The roof is gabled to the left and half-hipped to the right, with a gable end stack on the left and a ridge stack. The rear of the house, dating to the early 19th century, features gauged brick cambered arches over horned sashes, a French window with bordered lights and shutters, and a glazed door with overlight. A wrought iron verandah and balcony are present on the first-floor windows. Inside, there are 18th-century six-panelled doors. The hall has mid-18th-century Doric entablatures to broken pediments over doors, and an early 19th-century straight-run staircase with a wreathed handrail. Early 19th-century fireplaces and cornices are also present; a blocked doorway in the centre of the right side wall has a mid-18th-century china closet in the adjacent wall. There’s a similar pedimented doorway and a mid-18th-century fireplace with a shouldered architrave on the first floor. Winder stairs lead to the attic, which contains a mid-18th-century round-headed panelled cupboard door and a common-rafter roof. Attached to the rear right and flanking a lane is a mid-18th-century brick wall of random bond construction, divided into 10 panels by pilaster buttresses. Each panel has a stepped plinth and a dogtooth cornice beneath a tiled coping.
