Appraisal
This generously proportioned pair forms part of a group of fine late nineteenth century house with the Terrace and Eastern and Western Villas. Its canted bay windows, grouped window openings and timber sliding sash windows are among the many surviving historic features. Its prominent location overlooking the Owenboy River and enjoying a fine view of Crosshaven to the south, makes it a notable addition in the landscape.
