Description
Elmbrook is a detached house, now divided into apartments, built around 1830 and altered in the late 19th century and late 20th century. It is constructed from limestone ashlar and features a double-pitched slate roof with a double-depth plan.
The exterior has a four-window range, with a three-window canted bay to the right of the center. It includes a slightly-returned coped parapet, a cornice, a cornice band, and a ground floor platband. The late 19th-century alterations feature a two-window gabled attic storey over a shallow canted bay, with similar mouldings to the main block and plate glass sash windows. A former first-floor trellised balcony has been converted into two balconies that are suspended from the wall above the outer first-floor windows, now with 20th-century doors. The former basement, now the ground floor, has an altered 19th-century five-panel door in a plain opening to the left of center and a 20th-century door to the far left.
Originally, the building had two storeys and a basement, but the front garden has been lowered to create three storeys. Although it has undergone significant alterations, it retains group value with its neighboring properties. In 1978, consent was granted for the demolition behind the façade and the construction of seven flats in place of the original Georgian house.
