Description
Sunnybrae House in Eaglesfield is a late 18th century, two-storey, three-bay house with a piend roof, built against a bank. It features a recessed single-storey wing from the early 19th century on the northwest side, which is at the upper level of the bank and aligns with the main eaves level. The house is constructed from rubble with ashlar dressings and has painted margins, topped with slate roofs.
The main entrance is a central panelled door on the south side, with a blind window above it that has unpainted margins. Flanking the door are sash windows with a four-pane glazing pattern, while the first floor has square windows. The house has corniced end stacks on raised and ramped plinths, and there is a door on the eastern flank that features a trelliced porch.
The addition at the northwest angle has a two-bay south elevation with a canted window on the left side at the head of the slope and a basement door on the right. Its roof is piended at the east, and it has end and axial stacks with paired massive diamond flues. The northern elevation includes some timber architraves and a wallhead gable.
The property is accessed through plain square gatepiers and decorated wrought-iron gates.
