Appraisal
Architectural design and detailing are immediately apparent in the unusual design of this building. The verandah to the front elevation is an uncommon feature, this along with the blind niche and label mouldings enlivening the appearance of the building. Although some windows have been replaced, the house retains its character which is enhanced by the retention of the four-centred window with lattice glazing.
