Description
Myrtle House is a late 18th-century house located on the south side of High Street in Axbridge. The building is roughcast and features end pilasters, a parapet with plain coping that ramps up to raised kneelers on each side and at the center, topped with stone ball finials. The roof is made of pantiles and has a brick stack.
The house is symmetrical, standing three storeys high with three bays. It has sixteen-pane sash windows, twelve-pane sash windows on the second floor, and six-light casements to the left of the ground floor. The ground and first floor openings are adorned with stepped voussoirs. The central door opening contains a six-panelled door, with the top two panels being glazed, and is complemented by a fanlight with radiating glazing bars, all under an open pediment supported by pilasters. Inside, there is an early 19th-century painted ceiling.
