Description

Antrim House is a former manse dating to 1872, with later additions and alterations. It is a two-storey, largely near L-shaped building with four bays, accompanied by a single-storey porch addition to one side. The main walls are constructed of squared and snecked tooled cream sandstone, with rubble at the rear, and feature ashlar dressings. A base course and overhanging timber bracketed eaves are visible, along with stugged quoins, droved margins (tabbed at the front and rear), and projecting cills. A single-storey, rectangular-plan ancillary structure adjoins the main building to the northeast.

The south elevation, which serves as the main entrance, has a corniced doorpiece supported by consoled brackets, placed slightly off-centre to the left. It contains a timber panelled door with a two-pane fanlight above, and a single window to the right. Dormerheads, housing single windows, break the eaves above. A flush, gabled bay is situated to the right, with a single window centred on each floor. A slightly advanced gabled bay is found on the outer left, also with single windows centred on each floor.

The east side elevation features a gabled section on the left with a boarded timber door, a two-pane fanlight, and a single window to the right. A two-bay range extends to the right, containing a single window at ground level, a gabled sandstone dormerhead with a window breaking the eaves above, and a single-storey, piend-roofed projection to the right.

The north rear elevation includes a gabled projection on the left with a two-leaf glazed door and a bipartite window above. A single-storey, purple-slated, piend-roofed porch addition extends from the outer left. A full-height wing is recessed to the right, with a small window offset to the left of centre on the ground floor, a tall stair window above, and single windows on both floors to the left.

The west side elevation has a gabled section slightly advanced on the left with single windows centred on each floor. A two-bay range is positioned to the right, with single windows in both bays at ground level and gabled sandstone dormerheads housing single windows breaking the eaves above.

Most windows are timber sash and case with six panes of glass, with a ten-pane stair window at the rear. The roof is covered in grey slate, with timber bargeboards. The ridge and wallhead stacks are coped with sandstone, and various cans are present.

The interior of the main house was not inspected in 1999.

The ancillary structure is a single-storey, three-bay, rectangular-plan block built of tooled cream sandstone rubble with droved quoins and long and short sandstone surrounds to openings. The south elevation features a square-headed doorway at centre, a single window to the right, and a two-leaf boarded timber garage door to the left. The north rear elevation is blind. Inside, it functions as a stable, complete with timber stalls and hay racks, and exhibits exposed rubble walls.

Rubble boundary walls with arched rubble coping partially enclose the site. Square-plan, pyramidal-capped sandstone gatepiers are situated flanking the entrance to the southeast, with modern two-leaf gates.
