Appraisal
A well-proportioned modest-scale house incorporating features characteristic of Lismore, including rendered Tudor-style timber frame detailing, and a jettied box oriel window to the dormer attic, all of which enhance the architectural value of the composition. Well maintained, the house presents an early aspect, and contributes to the streetscape value of Chapel Street.
