Description

Ardwy Orme is a house designed in the Free Renaissance style, built in 1895. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring smooth render with extensive red sandstone dressings, red tiled roofs, and tall red brick chimneys with cornices. The front includes a gabled bay with Dutch Renaissance detailing, a pediment, and pilasters framing a 3-light attic window, with volutes on the sides. There is a two-storey square bay window with a balustrade above the upper floor and an architect's monogram on the ground floor. To the right, there is a single-storey block with a hipped slate roof. Behind this, a projecting gabled block is at right angles, with a balcony on the first floor. To the left of the gabled bay, there is a large dormer, and on the first floor, a 4-light mullioned window with a broad swan-neck pediment. The ground floor features a glazed loggia, which may have been open originally. The left elevation has an entrance with an elaborate stone door surround, including pinnacles with ball finials, a cornice on volutes, and a round-headed doorway with mannerist columns, leading to original panelled doors.
