Appraisal
This modest well-proportioned house exhibits decorative design elements. The façade is enhanced by its entrance porch with carved timber bargeboards and a variety of materials including limestone, tooled sandstone and red brick. The treatment of the façade results in an architecturally pleasing exterior. The cast-iron gate piers contribute to the overall character of the site.
