Appraisal
Well-proportioned house, retaining its original form and window fenestration. The façade is enlivened by the ornate porch with timber finial. The extension is representative of late Victorian architecture. The gabled façade with full-height bay windows and cast-iron crestings are characteristic features of this period and add context to the site.
