Description
Corner House is a house featuring cement render with stone tiles along the eaves of the roof and red brick stacks at each end. It is one and a half storeys tall and has a three-window range. The upper windows break the eaves under small gables, which have been fitted with renewed verge boards. The windows consist of a central 6-pane casement on the first floor, flanked by pairs of 6-pane windows, while the ground floor has pairs of 8-pane windows on either side of a plain boarded door at the center. All the windows were renewed in the late 20th century, and the sills are made of stone.
To the right, there is a single-storey range that includes a small 4-pane casement window on the left and a red brick chimney at the right end. Additionally, a small outbuilding has been added to the right end, which has a roof ridge at a similar height and features a single boarded door at the front. There is also a garage addition at the left end, which is covered with stone tiles. The property has not been inspected.
