Description
Redbourn House is a house built around 1870, featuring incised stucco with corner pilasters and a rusticated ground floor on a plinth. It has a cornice between the floors, with string courses above the windows on each floor and at the first-floor sills. The eaves cornice is shaped, with a pedimented gable over the two left-hand bays. The roof is made of Welsh slate, with stone coping and rendered chimneys. The building is two storeys high and has four bays, with the two first-floor bays set back on the left side.
The entrance features a semicircular-headed porch with a hoodmould that includes labels and a projecting keystone. To the left of the porch are paired sash windows, while the ground floor on the right has two sash windows, and there are four sash windows above. All the sash windows are framed in architraves with splayed feet and scrolled aprons. The upper windows have segmental heads with keystones that extend up as fluted pilasters. A pediment rests on fluted pilasters, adorned with swag decoration in between.
