Description
Auchinfroe House is an early 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay Classical villa with a rectangular plan, featuring a U-plan stable range attached to the northwest, which is dated 1814. The building is harled and painted, with ashlar margins and dressings, a base course, an eaves cornice, and a blocking course that supports the eaves with moulded guttering and quoin strips.
The south elevation, which serves as the entrance, has three bays with the entrance bay advanced and chamfered corners. It features a later columned and pedimented shallow porch with a modern door and a fanlight with border glazing. The windows at both the ground and first floors are located in the returns, creating symmetrical flanking bays.
The east elevation is near-symmetrically arranged with four bays, and a modern conservatory is advanced at the penultimate left. The west elevation also has four near-symmetrical bays, with smaller windows on the outer left and a square slate-hung dormer at the center.
The windows are primarily 12-pane uPVC in a sash and case arrangement, along with some replacement top-hung windows. The roof is a grey slate piend and platform style, featuring coped ridge stacks with circular cans.
The stable range, which includes gatepiers and railings, is dated 1814 and is a quadrangular-plan stable block attached to the northeast of the house. It has been partly converted for domestic use in the west block, with an entrance at the southeast. The stable range is also harled with an ashlar base course and painted ashlar margins.
The south range is a long blank wall with a segmental-arched carriage door to the right, a two-leaf boarded door, a keystone inscribed with the initials JG EC 1814, and five flight-holes with a ledge. To the right, there is a uPVC window.
The west range consists of six bays, featuring three basket-arched carriage openings on the outer left, a pend door on the right, and two 16-pane timber sash and case windows on the outer right.
The north range has a piend-roof and a symmetrical five-bay south elevation, with a door at the center flanked by windows, including a uPVC top-hung window.
The gatepiers and railings consist of paired round-headed gatepiers with chamfered arrises, along with cast-iron arrowhead railings and gates.
