Square-headed tripartite window opening with limestone sill and one-over-one timber sliding sash windows with camber-headed toplights.

Appraisal
A fine house which is an excellent example of the housing built in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as the area became a fashionable suburban area. The balanced design and the inclusion of features such as the tripartite window and door with fanlight help to create its distinctive character.
