Description
Rheidol House is a two-storey house featuring painted stucco and a slate eaves roof with wavy bargeboards and prominent brick stacks, each with two diagonally-set shafts. The house has three bays with renewed 16-pane sash windows. The entrance is located in a gabled stuccoed porch, which has bargeboards and is positioned between the centre and right windows. The porch includes a 16-pane window at the front and a 20th-century half-glazed door on the left side. The left end wall is made of painted rubble stone. Attached to the right end of the house is a lower outbuilding constructed of rubble stone with a slate roof, and there is a single-storey further outbuilding beyond it.
