Description
Hulme House and Tullie House comprise two very similar properties, being a pair of semi-detached former houses. For many years they have been in continual use as educational teaching accommodation by Hulme Grammar School.
It is considered that the buildings will have been originally constructed in the early part of the last Century, 1900 to 1940. The properties are of Accrington brick type construction with timber suspended floors and pitched slate roof forms. Each property has accommodation over ground, first and second (attic) floor levels providing a range of different sized rooms currently given over to teaching purposes. There are complimentary facilities including kitchen areas, offices, storage, ancillary and Wc areas. The buildings have large bay windows to ground and first floor level on the front elevations and to ground floor level at the rear elevations.
Many of the original features of the properties remain, including molded and routered exterior joinery, single glazed timber sash windows, single glazing to bay windows, stained glass panels, tiled floor finishes, ornate internal joinery including doors, architraves, deep molded and routered skirtings and dado railings, ornate plaster corniches and ceiling roses, original staircases, and original fireplaces and bathroom installations. The internal décor includes plaster and both painted and papered wall surfaces with carpeting and linoleum floor finishes.
Externally the properties are set back from the line of Chamber Road and have walled garden areas to the front with macadam surfaced paths to the front doors. Hulme House has a macadam surfaced walkway to its left elevation and a small macadam surfaced area at the rear. Tullie House has a slightly larger walled garden area to its front and right-hand elevations, the latter running along the adjacent Clarence Avenue where access is afforded to a small macadam surfaced area at the rear of the property.
Location
Hulme House and Tullie House front directly onto Chamber Road at the junction with Clarence Avenue which runs along the right-side boundary of Tullie House. The properties lie immediately opposite the main Hulme Grammar School site.
The area is a very well and long established principally residential one, with a mix of housing mainly of Victorian and post and inter War terraced, and both detached large villa styles and semi-detached family houses. Many of the houses in the area are quite large in nature.
The immediate area is also well established with a number of school and educational buildings owned and associated with Hulme Grammar School and also care operators and institutional buildings.
