Description

Glenfrome House is an attached house dated 1827 by the owner, located on Ashley Down Road in Bishopston, Bristol. The building features a rendered exterior with limestone dressings and is designed in the Georgian style. It has two storeys and a basement, with a symmetrical five-window layout. The house includes wide, shallow full-height bays with a parapet, which has incomplete balustrade sections on the outer bays and a gabled section in the center above a deep, elliptical-arc recess. A plat band and cornice extend into the recess. The doorway, set beneath the arch, is flanked by pilasters and has a cornice leading to a balustrade above, with a 20th-century door. The ground floor has 6/6-pane sash windows, with a triple window to the right and two to the left, while the upper floor features single 8/8-pane sashes with pedimented lintels. Inside, the entrance hall has an elliptical arch leading to an altered lateral dogleg stair on the left, with panelled reveals around the doorways off the hall and six-panel doors.
