Appraisal
An attractive modest-scale house incorporating Classically-derived proportions with the diminishing in scale of the openings on each floor lending an elegant quality to the streetscape. Having been well maintained the house presents an early aspect with the original composition attributes intact together with most of the historic fabric both to the exterior and to the interior including a traditional Irish shopfront of some design interest displaying good carpentry.
