Appraisal
A picturesque, modest-scale house of eclectic appearance incorporating fine detailing that serves to distinguish the composition in the streetscape. Well maintained, the house retains its original form and massing, together with most of the original fabric, although the external appearance is not enhanced by the inappropriate replacement fittings to the openings.
