HOUSE & STABLES - Physical Description 1
This is a characteristic, double-fronted brick, hip-roofed cottage, between stepped, boundary wing-walls. The right-bay is set forward as a gable, with a window-pair; the upper section jettying in roughcast and timbers. The roof and skillion verandah roof are slate, the latter decorated with scalloped slates. The valence is a wavy timber palisade. There are terra-cotta finials, cresting, capping and chimney pots. The red bricks are tuck-pointed, cills and lintels are expressed. There is a fine, intact flyscreen door with spindle decoration. Paintwork and colours are rare originals. The chain-link fence may (or may not) be later, but is sympathetic.
The commercial stables at rear, face Chapel Street. They have light red/orange bricks in English garden-wall bond for perimeter walls and square-edged weatherboards to inside faces. The hinged slate-faced stalls at ground level are intact. There is a two-storey building at left with a gantry and loft door in the gable end facing the street and a chimney with terra-cotta pot. Across a bluestone pitcher-paved yard, is a timber-framed corrugated steel-clad, skillion-roofed, single-storey building.
