Blaengwawr House

Blaengwawr House is a Victorian house built in a classicising style, likely dating from the 19th century. It is attached to the rear of a farmhouse and functions as a separate east-facing residence. The main structure is rendered and painted white, with black dressings, and has a shallow-pitched roof covered with machine tiles, overhanging bracketed eaves, and brick stacks. Channelled quoins are present, along with moulded architraves featuring keystones and shallow bracketed sills to the set-back cross-framed windows. The house has two storeys and a frontage of three bays, with the central bay projecting and featuring a bracketed hood over a panelled, part-glazed entrance door, which retains brass fittings and is accessed by three stone steps. Windows are located in the return walls and above the entrance. A single window is present on each floor to the left, with a ground floor glazed verandah supported by decorative metal posts. To the right there is a narrower bay with a single window to each floor, and a projecting channelled bay with a pitched roof and bracketed eaves on the ground floor. A plinth runs along the base of the building. The rear of the house has a longer pitched roof and a lower cross range that was formerly part of the farmhouse and remains adjoining it.

The interior is accessed through a glazed lobby, leading to a hall with an original staircase featuring slender turned balusters, a wreathed handrail, and decorative treads. A basket-arch leads to a rear wing, which was formerly part of the farmhouse and has been extended to the south. Fine panelled shutters and reveals have been retained throughout, along with four-panelled doors and their moulded surrounds, and a moulded hall cornice. The flooring is a combination of wood and flagstones. No original fireplaces remain.
