Appraisal
An attractive house, built as one of a pair (second house not included in survey), composed of balanced proportions, and retaining most of its original form and fabric, including small-pane timber sash windows. The house also incorporates an early timber shopfront that has been sympathetically restored without adversely impacting upon the historic patina of the site. The house is an important component of the streetscape, and contributes to the character of Main Street.
