Appraisal
Unusual house built as part of a terrace, with both Tudor and Classical motifs. The gable with bay window is typical of the Tudor Revival style, whereas the fenestration rhythm and the Diocletian window are characteristically Classical. The house also has a basement, which was becoming an increasingly rare architectural feature in the Victorian era.
