Description
This is a country house, originally a single dwelling but now divided, built in 1896 by Phillip Webb, with extensions added in the 20th century. The left side is whitewashed brick, while the centre and right side incorporate red brick with roughcast on the first floor, and later brick extensions to the right end. The roofs are a combination of plain tiles in varying heights, with both hipped and gabled sections. The house is two storeys high with attics in the central gables, a single storey to the left, and a one-and-a-half-story section to the right extension. Prominent stacks are visible to the front and rear of the centre, and on the right, each featuring dentilled and corbelled details.
The front facade presents a rambling design. There are three mullioned, transomed, and leaded windows on the left side of the ground floor. The centre and right sides have an irregular pattern of leaded casement windows, with first-floor openings directly beneath the eaves. Ground-floor windows have cambered heads, and a large window on the ground floor to the right is situated under a stilted arched head. Two gabled sections are set back, flanking a projecting entrance porch with angle piers and a brick dentilled panel. The entrance has double board doors within a cambered head surround, accessed by two steps. Further entrances are located on the ends of the building.
The garden front is symmetrical, with three bays, the centre section recessed behind a first-floor balcony featuring a braced, arched wooden screen and verandah. A ground-floor loggia with triple arches is supported by octagonal brick piers. Smaller, multi-paned sash windows are positioned in pairs on either side of the centre, with ground-floor windows set under arched brick heads. Three flat-roofed dormers are incorporated into the roof. This building is considered to be Phillip Webb's final work.
