Description
Leigh House is a house mainly built in the early 19th century. It features stucco walls on the front block, while the other walls are made of brick in Flemish Garden Wall bond. The front has a low pitched hipped roof covered with pantiles, and the older lower rear part has a tiled roof with hips and half-hips. This two-storey building, which has older origins, has been renovated and includes two rear wings that extend to a taller three-storey front. The symmetrical south elevation has three storeys and three windows, with sash windows set in reveals. The central first-floor window is a tall round-headed light, while the rear part of the main block has second-floor sashes, and all other windows are casements. The entrance features a Doric porch supported by two columns and two pilasters, set on a stone step, with an oval decorative fan light above coupled doors. There is a staircase inside.
