Description
Greystone is a single storey and attic cottage, likely designed by George Truefitt in the late 19th century. It has a square plan and features coursed granite with ladder snecking, rough-faced dressings, and finely finished margins. The cottage has sloping cills, bipartite windows, and overhanging eaves.
The southeast elevation is near-symmetrical, with a single window at the center of the ground floor, flanked by a blank bay on the left and a shingled bay on the right that is recessed under the pitch of the roof. This bay is supported by two rustic timber columns and a granite column at the outer angle. There is a glazed panelled timber door to the right of the bay, accompanied by a 4-pane window. A V-plan, slate-hung dormer breaks the pitch at the attic floor.
The northeast elevation is asymmetrical, featuring a small window at the center and a window in the flanking bay to the right, while the left has a shingled bay with a small-pane window.
The northwest elevation was not visible in 1998.
The southwest elevation is symmetrical, with two windows at the center.
The cottage predominantly has 2-pane timber casement windows and a piended grey slate roof adorned with fishscale banding on the southeast and lead ridges. There is a rough-faced, coped granite ridge stack with circular cans, as well as cast-iron and PVCu rainwater goods.
The interior was not seen in 1998.
The boundary walls consist of battered granite rubble with rubble coping.
