Description
Keynsham House is an early 19th-century detached house, now divided into three separate properties. It has late 20th-century additions. The exterior is whitewashed render with stone dressings, concrete tile roofs, and gable end stacks of rendered brick. The style is late Georgian.
The house has a double-depth plan consisting of a tall central block and lower, attached wings. The south front is symmetrical, with three bays to the centre and single-bay wings. It features end pilasters with incised key fret decoration, projecting cornices, blocking courses, and a gabled roof over the centre, with half-hipped roofs to the wings. A small extension exists to the east, and a larger, late 20th-century addition is attached to the west return wall.
The central section has a 12-pane sash window in plain reveals with sills on the ground and second floors, except for the central first-floor window which is tripartite with square-section Doric mullions. An 18-pane sash window is located to the left of the central porch, and a single light window to the right.
The left-hand wing retains original fenestration, including a round-arched opening on the ground floor creating a Diocletian window above and a pair of casements below. A 12-pane sash window sits above, and a smaller 12-pane sash is stepped down to the right. The right-hand wing has been altered with an arched window and a large sash blocked and replaced with single-light 20th-century windows. A projecting porch features paired Doric pilasters, an entablature, and French windows.
A canted bay window is present on the ground floor of the east return wall, along with further 12-pane sash fenestration. Some central windows on this wall and to the rear have been blocked and painted to imitate windows. The interior has not been inspected.
The building forms a group with the gateway and railings associated with numbers 31, 33 and 35.
