Description

Brackla House is a villa built around 1815, with additional wings added in the mid-19th century, creating a cruciform layout. The house is two stories high with a raised basement and features a symmetrical three-bay front. It is constructed of rubble with tooled ashlar dressings.

The main south front has a central door flanked by sidelights and a fanlight, accessed by a semi-circular flight of shallow steps that extend over the raised basement. A corniced portico, supported by two pairs of slender Roman-Doric columns, is located at the entrance, with tall windows on either side. Each of the three-bay side elevations has short projecting wings, with the west wing featuring a large corbelled oriel window on the ground floor and a jerkin-headed gable. The windows mainly have 12-pane glazing. The house has four symmetrical ridge stacks, linked by a continuous cornice, all topped with cast-iron cans, and has shallow piended slate roofs with a rear valley. The east elevation of the raised basement includes garage doors.

Inside, the drawing room and dining room are decorated with plaster cornices, featuring a Greek key pattern in the drawing room and an egg and dart design in the dining room.

The property is surrounded by a garden enclosed by coped rubble walls lined with brick.
