Appraisal
The handsome well-balanced proportions of this well-preserved building make it a central point of interest in the streetscape, while its height contributes variety to the roofline. It retains a large amount of original fabric and the attractive diamond-paned overlight is a feature of particular note, as are the timber panelled interior window shutters. The house conforms well to surrounding architectural typology.
