Appraisal
Sited on an elevated position overlooking the harbour, this building is an attractive example of a late nineteenth century house built in the Tudor Revival style. The building’s artistic and attractive appearance is accentuated by the retention of the decorative bargeboards, ridge tiles and window surrounds, while the variety of window openings enliven the facade.
