No 60 Including Front Garden Walls

No. 60, including the front garden walls, is a house located on Milton Street in Higher Brixham. It is probably from the 17th century or earlier, but was remodeled in the early 19th century. The house features solid roughcast walls and a slated roof, with a large rendered chimney of pre-19th century appearance situated off-center to the left on the ridge.

The building is two stories tall and three windows wide. The right-hand end appears to have been rebuilt or added later, creating a symmetrical two-window house with a central doorway. The entrance has a six-panelled door with an old brass knocker and letterbox, where the two bottom panels are flush, and a plain narrow fanlight above. A trellised wooden porch with louvred sides and an ogee roof features a round arch adorned with a fringe of tiny pendants.

The windows are six-paned sashes, including the upper storey window on the right side. To the right of the ground floor is a plank door, with a two-light wooden casement window immediately to its left, each light containing eight panes.

The front garden is elevated above street level and is bordered by a stone rubble retaining wall that connects with the wall of No. 58. This wall has a coping of flat stone slabs and rises to form gate piers opposite the two doors: a lower gateway in front of the main house door and wider gates with large hinges at the right-hand end. Steps leading up to the main door are flanked by rendered stone rubble walls topped with stone slab copings. At the right-hand end, the side wall features a chamfered coping that ramps up against the wall of the house.
