Description

Paradise House is an 18th-century house that encases an earlier building, located on the west side of Hale Road in Wendover. It features a mix of red and blue brick with an old tile roof and has one brick chimney. The house is two stories tall with a basement and has an irregular four-bay front, showcasing sash windows with segmental arched heads. The left-hand bay contains tripartite windows, while the second bay from the left has a six-panel door set in a grooved frame, with grooves extending over brackets that support a flat hood. To the right gable wall, there is one bay of sash windows, and a large west wing projects from this side. The wing is partly constructed of vitreous brick in header bond with red brick dressings, has a tiled roof, and two brick chimneys. It is also two stories high, featuring three wide bays of upper sash windows and a canted bay on the left of the ground floor with a sash window and a moulded cornice. The front garden wall is attached and includes 19th-century plain spearhead iron railings.
