Description

A large Arts-and-Crafts villa, mainly of 1 storey with attic, and basement on the R side where the ground level is lower. Walls are pebble-dashed painted white, under a steep hipped tile roof. A cruciform shaped brick stack is at the R end. Tall stacks with triple diagonal shafts rise from the eaves on the L side of the gabled bay L of centre and the L side of the central bow window. The front is asymmetrical. The entrance is L of centre, in a 3-bay porch and former loggia with reed-moulded band between storeys and similar moulding to the parapet. The loggia has 3 round arches, the centre and L now infilled with glazed panels and doors (to Nos 1 and 1b), the R-hand still open to the main entrance. The main entrance (now No 2) has segmental-headed double doors with studs and vertical ribs.

Windows are wooden casements, mostly incorporating leaded glazing. Above the central bay of the loggia is a canted 2-light dormer window under a hipped roof. To the L of the loggia, but set well back from the L end, is a projecting 2-storey bay with higher eaves line. It has a weatherboarded gable on brackets, and attic projecting on similar brackets below a reed-moulded band. It has a 6-light ground-floor window and 4-light attic window with shutters. In the R-hand side wall is an original ornate cast iron rainwater head and down pipe.

To the R of the entrance is a bow window carried up above the eaves of the main house, with stone sills and deep boarded eaves to a swept roof with apex finial. It has central tripartite casement windows in both ground floor and attic, with transoms in the lower storey, and similar 2-light outer windows These ground-floor windows have replacement plain glass to the casements but retain original marginal glazing above the transoms. Further R the ground level is lower, and the elevation has projecting boarded eaves slightly lower than the loggia. It has two 3-light windows to basement and ground floors, with original shutters with strap hinges. The basement has a smooth-rendered sill band. Two hipped roof dormers have 2-light windows.

The L end elevation has a polygonal 2-light 2-storey canted bay window under a hipped roof. In the R end elevation the basement has an original wide folding garage door on runners, flanked by shallow buttresses with offsets. Further R is a splayed round-headed panel door (No 3), which abuts the steep bank at the back of the building. Directly above it is a terrace with a half-glazed door flanked by casement windows. Above the garage is a 4-light ground floor window. Two hipped roof dormers have 2-light windows, of which the R-hand has replacement plain glazing.

The rear, with gabled projections to the L end and R of centre, has casement windows but faces a steep bank.
