Appraisal
This house, built as one of a pair (second in pair not included in survey), is an attractive small-scale composition that is representative of a type of modest domestic architecture in the outskirts of the historic core of Waterford City. The house has been well maintained to present an almost-intact original aspect, and retains many important original salient features. The house is an attractive component of the streetscape of Thomas Street and continues the low-lying quality of the roofline of the street.
