Pitched slate roof having rendered chimneystacks, cast-iron rainwater goods and parapet with pediment detail. Rendered walls having ornate moulded render eaves course and plinth course. Square-headed openings to first floor with render surrounds and bipartite timber casement windows. Render shopfront having render Doric style pilasters, fascia and cornice.

Appraisal
This house is an attractive, unusual composition, retaining its original long, low form and character, together with important salient features and materials. The shopfront retains its ornate glazed overlight and double doors, features such as these are becoming increasingly rare in modern urban streetscapes.
