Square-headed window openings having replacement uPVC windows. Elliptical-headed door opening flanked by engaged Ionic columns, supporting entablature with spoked fanlight and with archivolt above.

Appraisal
This scale and general proportions of this classically proportioned house form a pleasing visual contrast with other buildings on the street, while the former coach house adds context and interest to the site.
