Appraisal
This fine terraced house is quite unlike the others in its form and design, and its facade was probably altered at the turn of the century in the fashionable architectural style of the day. Its tripartite windows are not evident elsewhere in the streetscape, nor is its particular doorcase design. These features, combined with the retention of timber sliding sash windows, make a positive contribution to both building and streetscape.
