York House

York House is a house built with painted stucco and a slate roof, which overhangs on corbels and features brick end stacks. It has a narrow, three-storey front with two windows, each floor having pairs of plate glass sash windows. The upper floors have two pairs of windows, while the ground floor has one pair on the right. Each pair of windows is topped with a single hoodmould, which are linked on the upper floors. There are heavy moulded sill bands under the upper floor windows, with small sill brackets under the first floor and a similarly thick sill under the ground floor windows that also has brackets. The entrance features a two-panel door with an overlight, set within a stucco pilastered doorcase that has simple capitals, a plain frieze, and a moulded cornice, with two steps leading up to it. The side walls are windowless, and the rear of the house has 20th-century windows.

Inside, the hall includes a glazed screen with chamfered woodwork, similar to the houses on the Esplanade from the 1870s. The staircase features a bulbous newel post, thin turned balusters, and shaped tread ends, rising in four flights. The front room has a modillion cornice and an acanthus rose, along with four-panel doors. The first-floor front room includes a moulded cornice with a vine border and an elliptical arched recess on the south wall.
