Description

Strathlomond is a detached three-bay two-storey house with attic, built around 1870, situated on the east side of Crevenagh Road on an elevated site within mature gardens.

The building is rectangular in plan with a two-storey canted bay to the north and a projecting bay to the west, together with a two-storey flat-roofed extension to the south. The roof is pitched natural slate with terracotta ridge tiles; the flat roof to the centre contains a pitched glazed rooflight. Decorative carved timber bargeboards, plain to the rear, sit above corbelled red brick chimneys with yellow brick detailing and clay pots.

The walls are English garden wall bonded red brick with sandstone quoins over a sandstone plinth, with a decorative string course at first floor level. Windows throughout are timber-framed, with 2/2 (horizontal panes) sliding sashes at ground floor and segmental-arched-headed windows at first floor; all feature brick voussoirs with carved keyblock detail and shared sandstone sills. Rainwater goods are cast iron.

The principal elevation faces north. The gabled left bay contains fretted bargeboards with two windows at ground and first floor and a single attic window. The central bay contains the main entrance: timber panelled double-leaf doors accessed by stone steps, surmounted by a segmental-arched-headed fanlight in a moulded architrave flanked by brick piers supporting a segmental-headed canopy, with a single window at first floor above. The gabled right bay is abutted by the canted bay, which contains single windows at each floor to both cheeks, with a small 1/1 sliding sash window to the attic.

The east elevation contains four windows at ground floor (the second from the left was previously a door opening, now blocked), with a small timber casement window flanked by windows at first floor. An outbuilding abuts this elevation at ground floor left, now serving as the rear entrance to the house.

The south elevation consists of a pair of gables. The left gable contains single windows at ground and first floor on the right, with two small attic windows. A window at ground floor and a half-landing window are positioned at the centre. The right gable is abutted by the flat-roofed extension, with the exposed section blank.

The west elevation contains two windows at each floor on the left, abutted on the right by a projecting gabled bay with two windows at each floor, and single windows at each floor to both cheeks.

The main gates at the entrance are wrought iron, supported by square rubble piers with sandstone coping; pedestrian access lies to the left. An enclosed yard to the rear is accessed through timber gates supported by square brick pillars with sandstone coping.

The outbuildings feature asbestos tiled pitched roofs and brick walling with brick voussoirs to the openings. A single-storey outbuilding at the south, partially rebuilt and abutting the house, contains a vertically-sheeted door and window at the right, providing access to the rear hall. A two-storey stable-block at the east contains vertically-sheeted doors and timber casement windows at ground floor surmounted by louvred openings at first floor; the rear elevation is smooth rendered. A single-storey rubble cottage with thatched roof stands to the south-east, built recently as a folly.
