Description
Lislea House is a two-storey, three-window vicarage built in a classical style. It features stucco elevations beneath a hipped slate roof, which has two rendered ridge stacks. Architectural details include deep soffited eaves with decorative bosses, a stone plinth, and recessed hornless sash windows with flat heads and stone sills. The garden front to the south has a central full-height canted bay that projects further on the ground floor, adorned with a modillion cornice. This bay includes a full-height tripartite window with a central section of six-over-nine panes. The upper floor has three-over-six-pane sashes, while the ground floor flanking the canted bay features six-over-six-pane sashes.
The west elevation has two windows, with the sashes matching those on the front; however, the right upper window is blind and painted. The east elevation also has two windows and contains the entrance on the right, which features a round-arched opening with a panelled door and fanlight, along with a three-over-six-pane sash above. To the left is a similar round-arched opening with a blind window above. The house has been altered and reduced at the rear (north). On the ground floor, there is a round-arched horned sash window to the left, and a two-storey brick staircase projection in the centre with a 20th-century stairlight of three-over-six panes. A smaller similar window is to the left of the projection, and there is an eaves stack on the right. Additionally, there is a nearly full-width brick flat-roofed extension on the ground floor with 20th-century glazing.
Inside, the house underwent alterations in the mid-20th century, and the original staircase's location is unclear but may have been to the southeast. The east entrance leads into a lobby with a stained glass window on the right and a door on the left leading into the study. Straight ahead is a long hall, with a dog-leg staircase in projection to the right. The dining room is located at the west end of the house and features a heavily moulded ceiling cornice and a grey stone fireplace. The central room with the canted bay has a foliate frieze on the ceiling cornice and a marble fireplace. The house boasts large rooms and wide panelled doors with moulded surrounds.
