Description

211 Ferry Road is a house built around 1830, featuring two storeys and an attic, with a three-bay gabled design. There is an additional single-bay wing to the east that has a slightly set back piend roof. The exterior is finished in polished ashlar, with a base course, a cill course at the first floor, a cornice, and a blocking course. The house has a regular arrangement of windows, which are framed with moulded architraves.

To the right, there is a three-bay porch made of pilastered and pedimented ashlar, which includes a two-leaf panelled door and a rectangular fanlight, with windows on the return. The ground floor features corniced windows on the centre and left, while the left side has a recessed bay with paired windows at the ground level and a single window above.

The windows are four-pane timber sash and case style. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are corniced ashlar stacks at the apex.

To the right, there is a coursed rubble screen wall topped with a cornice and blocking course, which has a garage door inserted. The front area is enclosed by coursed rubble walls with saddleback ashlar coping.
