Projecting cornice to entrance porch with dentil course and surmounted by rendered parapet. Rendered walls.

Appraisal
Built as one of a pair, this pair occupies the most elevated position on its site, maximizing the south facing light and views, which are facilitated by its long facade that retains canted bay windows and high ratio of fenestration to walls. The side entrances are located to allow for an uninterrupted south front, and the fine entrance porches are carefully designed and executed. The pair retains many noteworthy features including timber sliding sash windows and render detailing.
