Description

East Stoke House is a detached house built in the late 18th century and early 19th century, featuring a ham stone ashlar facade with cut and squared stone elsewhere. It has hipped Welsh slate roofs and ashlar chimney stacks, with a double roof plan and later additions. The house is two storeys high and has five bays. Notable architectural details include a plinth, rusticated quoins, a cornice, and a solid parapet. The upper level has margined sash windows set in architraves, with pairs of windows in the outer bays. The lower level features angled bay windows with larger matching sash windows in the outer bays, topped with flat roofs behind a low parapet. There are semi-circular arched niches for statuary in bays two and four, and bay three includes an open stone feature with paired fluted Doric columns supporting a plain entablature.

A later 19th-century extension on the east side is two storeys high with three bays, hipped at the west end but coped to the east, featuring small-pane and horizontal-bar casement windows. At the rear, the north-east corner has a wing wall with ogee curved openings and square gatepiers with gabletted caps that connect the house to the single-storey coach house. The coach house has a slate roof between stepped coped gables and an elaborate cross finial on the south gable. The house was initiated in the late 18th century by the Chaffey family, who pieced together an estate from parts of the former East Stoke Manor.
