Description

Camrose House is one of a pair of three-storey houses, featuring painted roughcast walls, a brick dentil eaves cornice, and a slate roof with red brick stacks on either side. Each house has one central window bay and an outer doorway. The ground floor has twelve-pane sash windows that are aligned inward of the centre, with a central pair of nine-pane sashes on the second floor. The outer doorway is round arched and has a late Georgian timber doorcase, which includes piers with console brackets, panelled reveals, and a moulded course above the door at the impost level of the arch. This supports entablature blocks with cornices under an open pediment that features dentils. The fanlight has unusual radiating tracery, and the door is a six-panel design with four sunk panels and two flush panels.

At the rear, there is a wing that is part of a single rear range with No 108, along with a further long rear outbuilding. The property is also complemented by earlier 19th-century wrought iron railings that resemble those from the 1820s in Picton Terrace, Carmarthen. These railings are set on rendered dwarf walls with stone coping and feature square uprights with scrolls between spiked finials. The railings return on both sides of the access slate path, and there are gates designed similarly to the railings, providing access from the pavement and from the path to a small front garden on the right.

Inside, the hallway is located to the left of the front room and features a vine-scroll and wheat ceiling border, panelled shutters, and a six-panel door. There is a similar six-panel door leading to the steep stone cellar stairs. The staircase, positioned at a right angle to the left of the hall, has straight balusters, open scroll strings, thin turned newels, and ramped rails. The bottom newel has been replaced with a square one in the 20th century. On the first floor, a six-panel door leads to the large front room, which has a leaf and berry cornice and a hop-flower border.
