Appraisal
An elegantly-proportioned house, built as one of a pair (with 22809010/WD-21-09-10), which retains most of its original form and massing. An important survival is the shopfront to ground floor, which is of considerable artistic design merit. However, the inappropriate replacement fittings to the window openings detract from the external appearance of the composition. The house, together with the second in the pair, forms an attractive feature of formal appearance on the streetscape.
