Lime House

Lime House is a house dating to circa 1740, located in Cobham, Borough of Elmbridge. It is constructed of red and blue brick with red brick dressings, and has a plain tiled roof largely hidden by a stone-coped parapet. Two end stacks are visible to the right, and one to the left. The house is two storeys and has attics under flat-roofed dormers. A gauged brick plat band runs above the ground floor, while a dentilled band sits at the base of the parapet. It has four bays with sash windows featuring glazing bars, each set under a gauged head. The main entrance features a four-panelled door in a deep reveal, with a transome light and an architrave surround incorporating a volute keystone and an open pediment porch hood supported on console brackets with scalloped tops. An early 20th-century projecting square addition sits to the left, with a hipped slate roof, dentilled eaves, and one sash window on each floor. A six-panel door is found to the left of this addition, protected by a flat porch hood with guttae brackets and wrought iron cresting at the top. Tile-hung extensions extend across the rear of the property.
