Description

19 and 20 Courtenay Park Road are a semi-detached pair of houses built in the mid-19th century. They are made of painted stucco and feature a continuous slate roof with rendered stacks, including original octagonal pots on the left side. The architectural style is described as Picturesque Tudor.

The houses are two storeys high with attics and have a symmetrical four-window arrangement, with projecting gabled centre bays creating a 1:2:1 fenestration pattern. The exterior includes plain 20th-century bargeboards, a plinth, single-light attic windows, cross-windows on the first floor, and French windows with canted bays on the ground floor. There are four forward-facing gables, with the central ones stepped well forward, featuring single-storey hipped-roofed canted bays that have full-height plate-glass windows of slightly different sizes. The gable of No. 16 includes a cast-iron pendant frieze. The smaller outer gables are above slightly projecting oriels that are corbelled out to the first floor. No. 16 has French windows below, while No. 17 features a later 19th-century glazed conservatory with trefoil-headed panes. The doors are located in the angles against the stepped-forward sections.

The interior has not been inspected. These houses are part of the Courtenay Park development, which was laid out in 1854. Compared to other buildings in Courtenay Park, they have a more modest use of stucco decoration but are boldly articulated with the gabled outer oriels.
