Appraisal
An appealing, well-proportioned house that is distinguished by distinctive attributes, including a variety of profiles to the window openings, together with decorative rendered detailing to a tripartite window opening, which enhance the architectural design quality of the composition. Although now painted, the brick dressings to the remainder of the openings augment the textured quality of the house. Very well maintained and restored, the house presents an early aspect with replacement fittings installed in keeping with the original integrity of the design. The house, together with a further range of similar appearance to north (22810109/WD-21-10-109), forms an attractive feature in the streetscape on the approach into the centre of Cappoquin from the south.
