Description
No. 1 Courtenay Park Road is a house, now used as offices, built in the mid-19th century. It features painted stucco and a shallow-pitched hipped slate roof with wide eaves and no chimneys. The building is designed in an L-shape with a 20th-century rear wing.
The exterior has two storeys and a three-window range. It includes rusticated quoins and sash windows with moulded architraves and bracketed sills for the six-over-six pane first-floor windows on the south and east fronts, while the north side has plain openings. A first-floor plat band runs across the front. The left-hand range on the east entrance front has a gable with a pediment above it. The first floor features a semicircular-arched window with radial glazing bars, and the ground floor has a large flat-roofed rectangular bay with a full-height tripartite six-over-nine pane sash window, flanked by pilasters with moulded caps. The returns of the bay have similar two-over-three pane sashes, along with a plain frieze and moulded cornice.
At the angle of the left and right-hand ranges, there is a square-plan two-storey porch with four-over-four pane sashes on the first floor, a simple door with an overlight flanked by pilasters like those of the left-hand bay, and a similar cornice. A small semicircular-arched window on the right return lights the porch. The ground floor of the right-hand range has a six-over-nine pane sash window with a raised surround and a cornice on consoles. The left return facing Courtlands Road has a similar gabled range above a single-storey canted bay, likely added in the later 19th century, with other windows resembling those on the front right.
This house is part of the Courtenay Park development, which was laid out in 1854.
