Description
Hampton House is an early 19th-century house located on Totford Lane in Seale and Sands. The building is stuccoed and features mansard slate roofs with some fishscale banding. It has two storeys and an attic, set on a plinth with wooden bracket eaves that are cut into at the ends by pedimented dormers with sash windows, flanked by scroll decorations.
The front of the house is symmetrical with five bays, where the central three bays project slightly. Each floor has five twelve-pane glazing bar sash windows under cambered heads, with the two windows on either side of the centre on the ground floor set in arched, recessed panels. The central entrance features a panelled door with the top four panels glazed, accompanied by a traceried fanlight in an arched and panelled surround. A single-storey flat-roofed portico with paired Doric columns is located at the front, while single Doric pilasters are present at the rear.
To the right, there is a five-bay single-storey corridor with glazing bar sash windows that connects to a square two-storey pavilion with a mansard roof and irregular fenestration. The left-hand return front is also symmetrical, with a central recess and end angle bays, featuring a similar arrangement of dormers as the entrance front. The glazing bar sash windows in the angle bays are tripartite, with arched panels above the ground floor windows at the ends.
At the rear, there is an angle bay window to the left beneath a dormer, and a glazed door with a fanlight is positioned to the left of centre. Inside, the house features a two-storey staircase hall with an iron balustrade decorated with a foliage pattern. Some interior doors retain fanlights, and several fireplace surrounds are still in place.
