Description
Burlington House is a mid-19th century, two-storey, three-bay villa designed in an L-plan with a single-storey wing at the rear. The building features a gabled porch at the front and gabled breaking eaves above the first-floor windows. It is constructed from squared and snecked whinstone, accented with yellow ashlar sandstone margins, and has long and short quoins. The design includes a base course and a moulded eaves course, with blocked architraves on the openings that are chamfered to the reveals. The gables are coped and finialled, with bracketted skewputts.
On the east (principal) elevation, there is regular fenestration, with an advanced gabled porch at the centre that contains a panelled timber door. To the left, there is a slightly advanced gabled bay. The south (garden) elevation also has regular fenestration, featuring a slightly advanced gabled bay to the right with an inset panel at the gablehead. The west (rear) elevation maintains regular fenestration, with a bay to the left and an advanced gabled bay to the right. There is a single-storey, four-bay advanced gabled service block running the length of this elevation, with a gabled bay on the outer right and stone steps leading to a door to the left of the bay. The north (side) elevation has regular fenestration and a two-bay gable end, with the windows on the right blocked. A high coped wall with a gate connects the gable end to the single-storey wing at the rear.
The windows are 12-pane timber sash and case, and the roof is covered with grey slates and lead flashing. The building features coped gable and ridge stacks, along with cast-iron rainwater goods.
The gatepiers and boundary wall consist of square-plan ashlar piers with chamfered returns and gableted pyramidal caps. There is a low coped rubble wall in front of the house lining the driveway, and a high coped rubble wall surrounding the garden to the south and west.
