Description

East Curthwaite House is an early 19th-century house built from coursed dressed red sandstone. It features an eaves cornice and raised painted quoins on a chamfered plinth. The roof is a graduated hipped greenslate with stone chimney stacks. The house has two storeys and three bays, with a single-bay extension to the rear left and a further lower single-bay extension, creating an overall L-shape.

The entrance includes a 20th-century door beneath a glazed fanlight, set within a prostyle Doric porch that has fluted columns, a plain frieze, and a dentilled cornice. The windows are sash style with glazing bars, framed in painted stone architraves. The extension features sash windows with glazing bars, with the first extension having double sash windows. There is an additional extension to the rear right with 20th-century windows, which is not of interest.
