Appraisal
This building retains much of its original form and character to the exterior. The building is primarily of importance for the effect of the façade in the streetscape of Lord Edward Street. The terrace was built between 1871-73 by the entrepreneur and Home Rule politician William Henry O'Sullivan. The building retains important early or original salient features and materials, and is distinguished by the fine rendered detailing throughout.
