Description
16 and 17 Courtenay Park Road are a semi-detached pair of houses built in the mid-19th century. They feature painted 20th-century roughcast and have a continuous slate roof with tall castellated stacks on the front party wall and the left return. The architectural style is Picturesque Tudor, and the houses have a double-depth plan. No. 17, located to the right, has large 20th-century additions at the rear.
The buildings are two storeys high with attics and have a four-window range, displaying a 1:2:1 fenestration pattern. The outer bays are stepped forward and feature elaborate fretted bargeboards on the gables. No. 17 has a hipped roof with a large gabled dormer that balances the overall design. The first floor includes three-light mullioned and transomed windows with label moulds and panelled aprons, along with a string course above similar ground-floor windows. The outer windows are set in raised panels, and there are single-light windows on the returns.
No. 16 has two-light casement windows in a gabled dormer on the right and a gable attic above later 19th-century two-storey flat-roofed rectangular bays. These bays incorporate the original windows and feature chamfered jambs and heavily moulded cornices. The entrances are located in the returns, with No. 16 having a gabled and glazed porch with trefoil heads in the panes. The houses are part of the Courtenay Park development, which was laid out in 1854.
