Appraisal
This substantial corner-sited house and former shop presents a strong façade to the streetscape. Its solid massing and decorative render elements further distinguish the building in the terrace. The simple tripartite shopfront, retaining its heavy entablature and ornate consoles, adds artistic interest to the façade.
