Appraisal
An appealing Classically-proportioned middle-size house retaining the original form and massing to the upper floors together with much of the early fabric both to the exterior and to the interior, thereby making a positive impression in the streetscape. Despite some alteration works to the ground floor the frame of a finely-executed shopfront of artistic design merit displaying good quality traditional craftsmanship survives substantially intact, thus enhancing the visual appeal of the site at street level.
