Description
Fitzroy House is a house built in the late 18th century, with alterations made in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The structure is made of brick, with a roughcast finish on the facade and left side. It features a parapet, a coved cornice, and a hipped slate roof, with paired octagonal stone stacks rising from the eaves and at the rear. The house has a double pile layout and is two storeys high, comprising four bays with 16-pane sash windows that have moulded raised surrounds, console brackets, and moulded lintels. It also includes louvred shutters and a central flat-roofed Doric wooden porch, which has an Adam-style fanlight above three-quarters glazed early 20th-century double doors. On the left side, there is a set-back two-storey, one-bay gabled wing, which is fronted by a single-storey, flat-roofed single bay featuring many-paned casement windows. The interior has not been seen.
