Description

Cae Mynydd is a house featuring colourwashed stucco and a hipped roof covered with graded slates. It has flat boarded eaves and roughcast end stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a three-window front that is notably large, with large 16-pane sash windows and thick painted sills. The central entrance is an arched door set within an elegant timber doorcase topped with a fine open pediment supported by consoles, which have modillions within the pediment. Below the consoles are imposts and piers adorned with Greek-key ornament. The door reveals are panelled with eight-sided panels of varying lengths, with two panels on each side and two in the arch soffit. The double doors consist of three panels, with the top and centre panels being fielded and eight-sided, while the bottom panel is rectangular. The design of the door panels is reflected in the reveals. The fanlight above the door features thin intersecting glazing bars. The end walls of the house are blank.

At the rear northeast, there is a heavily altered wing that includes remnants of an earlier house, with the only visible external feature being a battered truncated chimney, which is an end stack of a lower parallel rear range that has been thoroughly modernised. This range is connected to another structure that runs at a right angle to it, extending northward.

Inside, the front rooms retain original plaster cornices, along with panelled shutters and an iron retaining bar.
