Roughcast rendered walls. Timber sash windows with stone sills. Modern skylights to rear of roof. Round-headed door opening with timber fanlight and timber panelled door.

Appraisal
Located on the outskirts of Rhode village, this modestly designed house has been extended to create a larger, more impressive structure. The extension to the rear appears to be unusually early. Although renovated, the building is enhanced by the survival of original features such as the timber sash windows and door. The house, outbuildings and large gardens add a picturesque dimension to the road upon which it stands.
