Description
Broglasco House is an Edwardian house constructed between 1900 and 1919, built in the Arts & Crafts style as it was locally interpreted. It was constructed for the Reverend William Kane, who previously commissioned Young & Mackenzie to design the Presbyterian church in Dunfanaghy and expressed views on its style. He built Broglasco House for his retirement and that of three single sisters, and died there in 1905. The house replaced a single-story farm cottage, and the remains of an early 19th-century outbuilding, visible on an 1831 Ordnance Survey map, are located to the rear.
The two-story house has a slated roof and smooth rendered exterior. The main facade, facing Broighter Road, is five bays wide, with two bays projecting forward and a hip-roofed, slated porch in the angle. The return northern facade is three bays deep, featuring a ground floor bay window and a two-story return with a lower, continuous roof extending for another two bays. Horizontal bands of plaster, outlining the first-floor windows, divide the render. The windows in the main section of the house are wooden sliding sashes, divided into three sections, with decorative leaded glass in the upper portions. Intact crenellated ridge tiles and dominant red brick chimneys are present. The house is characterised by three highly decorative timber barges, painted white, which are distinctly Arts & Crafts in style. The roof is slightly raised over two windows on the main facade, and a tripartite window illuminates the first-floor landing. The south gable has been recently renewed. The windows to the return have been replaced with PVC units. The drawings for the house are dated 14 March 1902.
