Nut Tree House, Including Front Garden Walls

This is an early 19th-century house located on Milton Street in Higher Brixham. The house has solid rendered walls and a hipped slate roof, with rendered chimneys on each end wall. It is two storeys high and originally had three windows across the front.

The central doorway features moulded wood pilasters and an entablature with circular panels at each end. It has a six-panelled door with flat lower panels and a recessed upper panel containing a diamond-shaped glazed light. The windows are generally six-paned sashes in box frames. However, the ground-floor window on the right-hand side has a flat-topped canted wooden bay with pilasters supporting a top entablature, and features six-paned sashes at the front and two-paned sashes on the sides. A boxed eaves cornice runs along the top of the house.

In front of the house, a garden is raised above street level and is enclosed by a stone rubble retaining wall that connects with the wall of the neighbouring property at No. 60. The wall rises to form gate piers opposite the front door. Similar walls, with copings of flat stone slabs, flank the steps leading up to the front door.
