Description
Southwood Lodge is a villa, now functioning as a funeral home, with an attached wall. It was built around 1830 and is depicted on Merrett's 1834 Map. The building features stucco over brick with a slate roof that is hipped at the front and has a double pitch at the rear. There are end stucco stacks, an iron verandah, and a balcony.
The exterior is two storeys high with five first-floor windows, three of which are in a full-height bow on the right side. The ground floor has six-pane French windows with divided overlights and margin-lights, all set in plain reveals with sills. The central entrance consists of a six-raised-and-fielded-panel door with a lozenge motif on the frieze and overlight. There is an additional angled range set back to the right with one first-floor window, which is a 6/6 sash. The rear of the building retains 6/6 sashes.
Although the interior has not been inspected, the ground floor verandah on the left has column cluster uprights and an openwork frieze. The balcony on the first floor of the bow features a web motif. There is a coped wall on the left that ramps downwards.
