Littleholme

Littleholme is a house, built in 1907 by C. A. Voysey for the builder and interior decorator G. Muntzer, and subsequently divided into three dwellings. The exterior is whitewashed roughcast with Bath stone dressings, and has hipped plain-tiled roofs, with a flat roof to the left end. The house is set into a hillside, with a large gable to the right of centre containing an attic storey. There are stone-coped and rendered stacks, including a cross-ridge stack to the right, just right of centre, and another to the rear left of centre. Tile-on-edge drip courses feature over the ground floor on the left and over the first floor of the gable. The projecting gable has a four-light leaded window with stone dressings on the first floor, beneath a tile-on-edge lintel, and a five-light window on the ground floor. An asymmetrical gable sits adjacent to the larger projecting end gable, with a tile-hung dormer between them. The gable includes an oblong attic window, a nine-light mullioned and transomed window on the first floor, and a small square window below. Another ground floor window is located to the right. The left-hand range is set back from the main gable and includes two first-floor windows (added in the 1950s) and four windows below. A part-glazed door serves No. 3, a panelled door with a corn-husk decorated surround and fluted pilaster piers is located to the left of the main gable and serves No. 2, and a flat hood on brackets is above the door. The original main door is on the ground floor, right of centre, within the main gable, featuring a round-arched head with a large glazed roundel in the upper section, with original door furnishings serving No. 1. The rear has a hip-roofed projecting square bay with a glazed-in sleeping balcony on the first floor, just right of centre. Three hipped-roof dormers are present to the right, along with roof finials. There are three large first floor windows and a flat-roofed wooden arbour on the ground floor.
