Description
Gwaunfa is a long, low two-storey, two-unit house built from roughly coursed rubble and limewashed, topped with a slate roof featuring cresting at the eaves. The near-central doorway is flanked by late 19th-century canted bay windows that have 4-pane sashes. The left-hand bay includes a decorative cornice. There are three small upper windows, also with 4-pane sashes, which are not aligned with the bays. At the rear, there is an outshut with small 4-pane sashes on either side of a part-glazed doorway.
Inside, the lobby is separated from the stair hall by paired part-glazed doors that have etched stained glass panels. The main living room is located to the west and is accessed from the lobby, while the eastern room is entered from the inner stair hall. The interior features simple details, including scratch-moulded joists and boarded ceilings, with boarded partitions on the first floor. The eastern room on the ground floor contains a cast-iron fireplace, likely from the early 19th century, which features Neo-classical decoration and is labelled as made by the Dale Company.
