Description

Nantuat is a rectory that has been converted into a house, built in the early 19th century with few later alterations. The structure is made of stone rubble with a stucco front and some areas that are slate-hung. It features a hipped asbestos slate roof with ridge tiles and deep eaves, along with axial stacks that have rendered shafts.

The building has a double depth plan, with a central entrance leading to principal rooms on the front right and left, both heated by an axial stack. At the rear, there is another principal room facing the garden on the right side, with service rooms located to the rear left.

The exterior is two stories high, standing on a plinth with a band course. It has a symmetrical three-window front, with all windows being early 19th-century 12-pane sashes that have thin glazing bars and panelled internal shutters on the ground floor. A central portico features fluted Tuscan columns, with inner double doors that have three panels and an overlight with Gothic glazing. The portico is adorned with a cornice and blocking course.

On the right side, there are three later 19th-century French windows at ground floor, each consisting of eight panes with toplights. The band course is returned, and there are three similar 12-pane sashes on the first floor. The left side has a rendered ground floor and a slate-hung first floor. The ground floor includes a 20th-century 12-pane sash, a 20th-century glazed door, and a 20th-century window. The first floor has two 20th-century 12-pane sashes to the left and one in the center. The rear of the building is rendered and features a cellar entrance on the left. The ground floor includes a similar French window to the left, a narrow 19th-century 12-pane sash in the center, and a large 19th-century 12-pane sash on the right, along with a 20th-century window at the far right.

The interior has not been inspected but may still contain notable early 19th-century features, such as a staircase, panelled doors, and chimneypieces.
