Description
Ystwyth Villa is the left house of a semi-detached pair with Hafod House, built from rubble stone with cut grey stone dressings and deep-eaved slate roofs. The building is two storeys high and has a four-window range overall. Each house in the pair features an advanced outer gabled crosswing and a one-window range with a gabled oriel in the inner bay. There are three large cut-stone chimneys with conjoined square shafts on the main ridge, a four-shaft chimney at the center between the houses, and a two-shaft stack on each house at the joint of the crosswing and main ridge, aligned with the main ridge.
The crosswing has quoins, plain bargeboards, and a triple casement window on each floor, with grey stone quoins and voussoirs. The inner bay features a similar pair of casements under a slightly projected oriel, with another pair of casements beneath a small eaves-breaking timber gable that has matching bargeboards and a lozenge-and-triangle pattern in raised strips.
The sides of the crosswing are relatively short, with two bays and a large gabled porch in the rearmost bay. The porch door is located on the side facing the road, and there is a casement pair on both the porch end wall and the ground floor window next to the porch. The upper windows of the porch are blank. The porch features similar grey stone quoins and frames for the window and door, and all windows have slate sills.
On Ystwyth Villa, the casements on the south front have been renewed in timber. The west side of the crosswing is rendered and has uPVC windows on both floors to the right and on the porch's west end. The porch door has been replaced in the 20th century. The rear north wall is made of rubble and has one first-floor window and a blocked window below.
The left side of the rear features a long rear wing built in two phases. The first phase is a two-storey lean-to with a door (now a fixed window) and a pair of casements in the west wall, with a small 20th-century window above. The second phase continues north with a two-storey, two-window range that includes a north end stack and casement pair windows to the west, two under the eaves, with a ground floor left window and door to the right, both featuring stone voussoirs. A tall cut stone chimney is located behind this section, on the east side, centered between the two houses.
