Description
Windermere House is a two-storey house located at the end of an informal terrace. It features three bays and has a slate gabled roof with two skylights and flanking brick chimneys. The eaves are slightly projecting and supported by small, sparse paired brackets. The facade is painted lined stucco with long and short quoins on the left and right sides, a sill band, and a plinth on the left side only. The windows are hornless 12-pane sashes with plain surrounds. The central door is recessed and consists of six moulded and fielded panels within a panelled recess, topped by a plain rectangular overlight. The doorcase has panelled piers and large scrolled consoles supporting a shelf cornice.
On the right-hand return facing New Road, the house is slate-hung above a lower ground floor that is rough cast, featuring a single-pane small window on the right side of the first floor. A plaque below the window commemorates Mrs. Elizabeth Lewis, who donated land to widen the road in November 1903, which was previously considered dangerous.
The northwest rear wing is roughcast and has no windows on the north side, but it does have a tall, wide brick chimney at the eaves. The left-hand return is also rough cast and plain.
