Semi-detached two-bay two-storey house, built c.1910, with canted bay window to ground floor and return to rear. Set back from street. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks, terracotta ridge cresting. Roughcast render to upper floor with string course and ruled-and-lined render to ground floor. Timber sash windows with rendered surrounds and decorative keystone. Canted bay window to ground floor. Round-headed door opening with moulded stucco surround and decorative keystone. Stained glass fanlight with timber and stained glass door. Bootscraper to door. Front site bounded by plinth wall with cast-iron railings and wrought-iron pedestrian gate.
This house forms one of a pair of group of similar semi-detached houses erected on John's Place and John's Terrace. Architectural detailing is apparent in the attention to such features as the decorative window keystones, sash window glazing bars and the canted bay windows. The ornate door surround, coupled with the artistic stained glass, enlivens the façade of the building.
