Description

Northfield is a two-storey house with rough-cast render that is now painted white. The roof is covered with graded courses of small pale grey slates sourced from Gallt y Llan quarry in Snowdon. The chimneys are rendered, and the house features small pane wooden casement windows with slated drip moulds.

The entrance front, which faces The Close, has double gables with outer slopes that extend down over the ground floor at a lower pitch. There are tall square-sectioned rendered chimneys on the outer roof slopes. The first floor includes tall small-pane casement windows with slated drip moulds. A central shallow porch, which is gabled and slated, has a slated buttress above a broad pointed arch. The entrance doorway is Gothic arched, and the porch is flanked by broad small-paned casement windows.

At the rear, the right gable is set forward, and the roof slopes down to the first floor level on the left side, where there is a small dormer in the left roof slope. The first floor features tall casement windows, while the ground floor includes a doorway and almost square small pane casement windows.
