Unpainted replacement cement rendered walls, c.1980. Square-headed window openings with concealed sills, and 6/6 timber sash windows.

Appraisal
A well-proportioned house of modest form and appearance that follows the topography of the sloping site to ground floor. Although extensively renovated in the late twentieth century, the house retains some important original details, including the fenestration to first floor. However, the replacement shopfronts are robustly detailed, and do not complement the reserved appearance to the remainder of the composition.
