Appraisal
Located overlooking the Owenboy River, this fine house forms an integral component of a short terrace. Despite some recent additions and alterations, the house retains a great deal of its historic character and form through the retention of key features including camber-headed openings, a slate roof, finely decorated canted bay window and decorated cast-iron eaves brackets.
