Description
Cameron House, now used as offices, is an 18th-century building that incorporates some 17th-century elements and has a 19th-century addition. The exterior features scored stucco painted white and a red tile roof. The house is L-shaped, consisting of an earlier structure that runs parallel to the street, with a rear wing and various other additions. It has two storeys, four bays, a cellar, an attic, and a three-storey rear wing.
The street-facing facade includes a band over the ground floor, which is interrupted by a canted bay in the fourth bay. There is an added or altered flat-roofed porch in the second bay, with 12-pane sashed windows on either side and three similar windows above, all with exposed boxes. To the right, there is a two-storey flat-roofed canted bay featuring 12-pane sashed windows with plain reveals. The facade is finished with a moulded eaves cornice and has chimneys at both gables, with one on the front slope of the roof between the third and fourth bays.
Slender wrought-iron spear railings with dog-bars connect the porch to the canted bay, incorporating a gate to the right of the porch. To the right, there is a two-storey screen wall with panelled pilasters topped with ball finials and an arched doorway in the centre. The added three-storey, two-bay rear wing projects from the right-hand return wall, featuring a canted bay window on the ground floor and 12-pane sashed windows on the upper floors. The rear of the building includes a doorway leading into this wing.
Inside, the ground floor has a large spine beam, and in the third bay, there are exposed joists of large scantling. The junction of the first and second bays shows remains of timber framing, including two posts and a rail with the vacant mortices of a third post. The junction of the third and fourth bays is marked by a thick chimney stack. Historically, the building was used as a preparatory school around 1900.
