Appraisal
Prominently sited on a junction, this former house makes a feature of its location with its curved, slightly recessed corner. The diminishing windows, elegant proportions and render details are in keeping with the terrace. The building is distinguished by its retention of salient features such as the sash windows, which contribute to the historic character of the terrace.
