Appraisal
An elegantly proportioned substantial house, built as one of a pair, which has been very well maintained, retaining an original aspect to the exterior, together with important features to the interior. The house, together with the second in the pair (22504500/WD-5632-22-495), contributes to the historic character of Catherine Street and is one of a number of houses of sophisticated quality in the streetscape.
