Appraisal
This former house, now in commercial use, makes a positive addition to Connaught Street. Situated within a terrace of structures that are similar in form and treatment, it aids in the creation of a pleasing and attractive group of buildings. The six-over-six timber sash windows with concave horns enhance the façade as does the simple, yet attractive, shopfront. These features identify this structure as one with notable architectural character.
