Appraisal
This elegant, classically proportioned, house retains many important features and materials, including its timber sliding sash windows, doorcase surround, cast-iron sill features, and cast-iron gates and railings. Despite some alterations this building retains its original form and character and, through its symmetry and continuous roofline, contributes elegance to the streetscape.
