Description
St Brelade's is a mid-20th-century modern style two-storey dwelling of three bays, located at the junction of Well Road and the coast road in Warrenpoint. It faces south towards the sea.
The building is distinguished by its three-tier flat concrete roof, each tier slightly stepped in height. The two front tiers run the full width of the house with advanced eaves all around. A water tank sits between the second and third tiers. The walls are rendered in painted and wet-dashed cement over an exposed brick basecourse. All window and door openings are framed with thin cement architraves and smooth rendered reveals.
The principal south elevation features a semicircular two-storey bay window projecting from the right end beneath the main eaves. The central entrance comprises a pair of painted timber doors with three vertical panels of fluted glass to each leaf, flanked by 1x5-paned sidelights with masonry architraves. Above the doors, an open flat concrete canopy is supported at its south-west corner by a slender metal column. The left bay contains a large rectangular picture window with 1x4-paned casements to each side. At first-floor level above the entrance is a triangular oriel with a transomed 1x4-paned casement to each cheek. The left bay has a matching but slightly wider window aligned below. Each storey of the right-hand bay is fitted with a wrap-around 1x5-pane timber window, vertically divided. All windows are uPVC with painted concrete cills unless otherwise stated.
The left elevation has a pair of 1x6-paned uPVC French windows at ground-floor level to the right. To the left, on the lowest rear block, is a fixed single-paned window with 1x3-paned flanking casements. At first-floor level are two 1x3-paned windows sharing a common cill. A curved screen wall in matching materials is positioned here, featuring a painted sheeted timber door providing access to the back entrance and rear yard.
A garage with a shallow monopitched corrugated-asbestos roof abuts the left section of the screen wall. The garage has a metal roller door to its front elevation and a sheeted timber door with a 3x3-paned metal casement window to its north cheek. The garage continues west as a yard outbuilding, which returns north around the back of the yard.
The rear elevation is abutted to the right by a two-stage return beneath the third roof tier. At ground-floor level right, a small glass-brick window marks the junction with the return. Above at first-floor level is a 3x1-paned timber window with a decorative metal grille to the inside, and to its right is a tiny slit glass-brick window. The roofline of the return wraps around the west side of the rear block. Its north face to the yard contains a transomed glass-brick window at ground-floor level right and a 1x1 top-hung slit window to its left; the first floor is blank. The left cheek extends as a one-storey addition with a blank north wall and a 3x1-paned casement window to the left cheek. The return's right cheek contains the back entrance porch.
The right elevation of the main block has a 1x6-paned uPVC door at ground-floor centre, leading into the drawing room. Above is a triangular oriel matching that on the front elevation. On each floor to its right, on the lower rear block, is a fixed single-pane window flanked by 1x4-paned casements.
A tarmaced path runs around the front and sides of the house. The garden to the south and east is enclosed by a distinctive painted dashed wall with a linear open concrete-block coping, creating a characteristic 'streamlined' effect. The wall steps up at the west end of the south wall adjacent to the entrance gateway. It curves at the south-east corner and at the north end of the east wall steps up and curves inward, with a wrought iron pedestrian gate. The rear yard is enclosed by the garage and outbuildings.
