Appraisal
This house is a notable example of urban architecture. It retains its interesting façade with varying window treatments distinguishing the floors. The ground floor is particularly ornate, with an interesting visual rhythm provided by the Venetian style windows flanking the round-headed entrance. Well executed render details such as the hoodmouldings and door surround add artistic interest to the façade. The site retains its boundary walls with ornate cast-iron railings, which distinguish this house in the streetscape.
