Appraisal
One of a pair, this house is an interesting example of late Victorian architecture. The irregular roofline and use of gables and gablets are characteristic features of the Tudor Revival style. The house is enhanced by the retention of its ornate timber bargeboards, which add artistic interest to the façade.
