Appraisal
An elegant, middle-size house, built as one of a pair (with 22809111/WD-21-09-111), incorporating architectural features typical of the period of construction, including canted bay windows. Extensively renovated leading to the loss of most of the original fabric, the house nevertheless retains most of its original form and massing, and continues to contribute significantly to the streetscape value of Chapel Street.
