Appraisal
A handsome villa style house that is an excellent example of mid-nineteenth-century domestic architecture. Unusually, it retains much of its historic fabric intact. Noteworthy features include the fine doorcase that forms the building’s decorative focus, the timber sliding sash windows, and fine boundary railings and piers.
