Description
House. This property dates to around the late 18th century, with remodelling occurring around the early 19th century. The walls are stuccoed, and the roof is covered with asbestos slate, featuring a hidden central valley, projecting eaves, and rendered brick chimneys set into the side walls and over the rear ridge of the cross wall. The house has a double-depth rectangular layout, comprising two large reception rooms flanking a cross passage (likely the original late 18th/early 19th century core) and two equal rooms behind. A cross wall separates this section from a wider, deeper two-room section to the right. It is two storeys high. The south front has a regular five-window arrangement, with the original three-window front on the left, but the section was remodelled around the 1820s. The central doorway has a 19th-century partly glazed door with marginal panes and an overlight, accompanied by a Doric porch with fluted columns and glyphs on the frieze (probably a 20th-century replacement). Above the doorway is a two-light casement with 12 panes, and the ground and first floors have two-light casements on the right. The first-floor window on the right has eight panes per light and may be original. To the left of the doorway is an early 19th-century bowed sash window with 30 panes and a 12-pane hornless sash above it. The right-hand two-window section, which may have originally had a doorway where the left-hand window now stands, has 20th-century windows, except for a 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash on the first floor to the right. There are small 20th-century extensions at either end. The rear of the house features a two-window section to the east of the cross wall and a four-window section to the right, arranged with a wider pier in the middle. The first floor has circa early to mid 19th century hornless sashes; the ground floor has three windows with recessed aprons on the left and French windows on the right. The interior has not been inspected. It is an unusual partial remodelling dating to the early 19th century. It is comparable to No 24 Tregew Road.
