Appraisal
This well-proportioned house makes a positive contribution to the streetscape of Church Street. It is enhanced by the retention of many original features and materials. The symmetry of the building supplied by the fenestration and the entrance openings is enhanced by the eaves details and window rail which enliven the façade.
