DENTAL SURGERY & HOUSE (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
The former Dental Surgery at 503 Sydney Road, Brunswick, is a two storey Edwardian bichrome brick building with a transverse gabled terracotta roof. The east facade is dominated by two large gabled oriel windows at first floor level. The larger of these (to the south) is a polygonal bay, the smaller simply rectangular. Each has a different half-timbered and stucco gable-end and a bracketed shingled base. The larger also has shingle cladding at lintel level. A similar rectangular oriel sits beneath the projecting gable-end on the south elevation. Between these bays is a small leadlight window with a segmental-arched head. At ground floor level, the central entrance porch is flanked by arch-headed windows with cream brick dressings. The first floor windows are timber-framed casements with smaller arched highlights; the ground floor semi-circular arched heads are glazed with multi-paned fixed lights. Windows have bluestone sills. The steeply-pitched terracotta tiled roof has terracotta ridging and finials, and red brick chimneys with terracotta chimney pots. The northern end of the main gable terminates in a corbelled gabled parapet.
