Description

Caerynwch is a large house, likely dating from the 19th century, constructed of rough-dressed stone blocks with shallow-pitched slate roofs and deeply oversailing eaves. The building has an irregular plan, predominantly two storeys high. The main block is roughly square and presents a four-bay south (entrance) front, with a centrally positioned entrance in the third bay. A single-storey portico, dating from the 19th century, features plain paired pillars and a plain entablature with a part-dentil cornice, sheltering double entrance doors and multi-pane glazed sides. The ground floor windows are tall, 19th-century sashes, while the first floor has recessed, elegant, original 12-pane sashes. To the right and slightly forward of the south front is a single-storey, two-bay addition with a matching hipped roof and long 12-pane sash windows. The west (garden) front is symmetrical, with two wide, shallow, two-storey bow windows framing a slightly recessed central bay. 19th-century glazing features, including French windows, wooden canted bays with plain-sash windows on the ground floor, and tripartite sash windows to the upper bows, alongside a single sash window to the first floor centre.

A three-bay extension, constructed around 1860, adjoins the north side, built in the same style with plain sash windows on both floors, including a central bay window. A further single-storey extension, built around 1901 as a billiard room, extends beyond this and is of similar design. The east (service) side is partially rendered and includes modern additions. The house stands on a raised terrace that steps down to the west.

Although not inspected during a survey in 1995, it is known that the house contains panelled doors, contemporary plaster cornices, and a fine central staircase with swept-rail stairs and iron balusters.
