Appraisal
This house is one of a well-maintained pair that presents a unified and strong façade to the streetscape. The scale and form of this pair is in keeping with the fine historic terrace of which it is an integral part. The well-executed render detailing, oversailing eaves and timber sliding sash windows are traditional features which add to its character and charm.
