Description

Fern Bank and the former Coach House is a 19th-century building constructed of brick with stuccoed dressings and a slate roof. It is described as an Anglo-Italian cottage and features two storeys in an L-plan layout, with the entrance located on the side of the advanced left-hand wing. The entrance is marked by an advanced gabled porch supported by pilasters with stiff-leaf capitals, which carry a cornice and entablature.

The upper storey has a sill band and a round arched window with a cast-iron balconette, topped by a steeply arched hood mould. The right-hand range includes an expressed stack and a sash window on each floor to the left. The eaves have a modillion cornice that returns to form an open pediment on the gabled return facing the street. This section features a canted stone bay window with French doors and a beaded frieze to the cornice, along with a round-arched sash window above, which has a steeply arched hood mould that continues as a string course.

The right-hand range has French doors on the ground floor and two 12-pane sash windows above, both equipped with balconettes. There are side and end wall stacks with moulded brackets supporting the projecting caps. At the rear of the house is the former coach house, which is square in plan and low at two storeys with a hipped roof. It features a segmentally arched entrance, a similar entrance in a flat-roofed range to the right, and a round window above. The roof overhangs on moulded brackets and is topped with a weather vane.
