Appraisal
A well-proportioned small-scale house, which retains most of its original form and which contributes to the streetscape quality of Main Street. Of particular interest are the rendered dressings, which attest to high quality local craftsmanship, while the shopfront to ground floor is of artistic design merit, and enhances the visual appeal of the composition at street level.
