Appraisal
This house is an attractive, modest-scale range of balanced proportions and symmetrical design that has been very well maintained to retain its original form, together with important early salient features and materials. The house forms an important corner site linking Grattan Terrace on Francis Street with Ballybricken Green, and contributes to the historic character of the streetscape of the locality.
