Hillcrest

End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey house, c.1850, with single-bay single-storey flat-roofed projecting porch to centre. Extensively renovated, c.2000. One of a terrace of three. Pitched (shared) roof with replacement artificial slate, c.2000, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, rendered coping, and replacement uPVC rainwater goods, c.2000, on overhanging eaves. Flat roof to porch not visible behind parapet. Painted rendered walls with paired pilasters to porch supporting frieze with moulded cornice over having blocking course to parapet. Square-headed window openings with cut-limestone sills, and replacement uPVC casement windows, c.2000. Square-headed door opening with timber panelled door. Set back from line of road with section of wrought iron railings to front on unpainted rendered plinth having wrought iron gate.

A handsome house of balanced proportions and reserved Classical detailing, which retains most of its original form and massing. However, extensive renovation works have led to the loss of much of the original fabric and historic patina. Built as one of a terrace of three identical units (with 22816043, 192/WD-26-16-43, 192), the house forms an elegant feature in the streetscape of Summer Hill.
