Appraisal
This well proportioned house makes an imposing addition to the streetscape of Portarlington. Three storeys in height, it stands out from the lower surrounding structures. Its façade is enlivened by the porch with its particularly fine door and brass fittings, which together add an artistic touch to the street front.
