Description

Templedean House, dated 1893, is an irregular-plan, 2-storey, 3-bay asymmetrical gabled villa, with a 2-storey wing extension added to the west around 1903, now known as West Templedean. The building is constructed of squared, snecked sandstone with moulded ashlar dressings, a basecourse, and long and short quoins. The principal elevation features two double-height canted bays flanking a wide timber porch, which was added in the early 20th century. A prominent double-height canted bay on the 1903 elevation has gabled windows on the first floor. The front has rectangular windows in shouldered-arch surrounds, and the west block includes mullioned and transomed windows. There is a flat-roofed garage to the northwest and a lean-to porch to the northeast.

On the southeast elevation of Templedean House, central stone steps lead up to a panelled door with sidelights. An arcaded timber porch conceals carved overdoor panels and a hoodmould, with a gabletted half-dormer above. To the left, there is a slightly advanced wide gabled bay with a 2-storey canted bay, and a date plaque from 1893 is located at the gable apex, topped with a pointed finial. To the right, another 2-storey canted bay features a polygonal roof. The openings are moulded and shouldered.

The southwest elevation of West Templedean has a central corniced French door with a 3-light fanlight above, and a single window above that. To the right is a large canted bay with three shouldered gables; the first floor has bipartite windows, while the ground floor features mullioned and transomed windows, along with a partly timber-panelled glazed door in a 4-centred arch opening.

The northwest elevation has an M-gable and a wallhead stack to the valley.

Inside Templedean House, there are encaustic tiles and stained glass in the vestibule, original cornice and panelling to the dados, and cast iron barleytwist balusters on the stair. The windows are predominantly 2 and 4-pane sash and case. The roof is covered with grey slate, featuring fishscale slates on the polygonal bay roof, and there are corniced ridge and wallhead stacks with octagonal clay cans, along with cast iron rainwater goods.

The boundary walls are made of sandstone rubble with chamfered copes, and there are square-plan gatepiers topped with pyramidal caps.
