A modest-scale house of balanced proportions and symmetrical design, which is typical of the houses built by the emergent middle class in the mid nineteenth century. However, much of the original fabric has been lost, which has detracted somewhat from the external expression of the composition. The house nevertheless remains an important component of the streetscape, contributing to the historic character of the locality.
