Appraisal
This house, which has been remodelled to ground floor in the mid twentieth century to accommodate a commercial use, nevertheless retains most of its original form and character to the first floor. The house retains important early or original salient features and materials, including timber sash fenestration and cast-iron rainwater goods to the replacement roof. The remodelled openings to ground floor have detracted somewhat from the original form of the building, yet respect the arrangement of openings to the first floor. The house is especially of significance for its impact the streetscape of Main Street, continuing the established streetline of the planned street, while contributing to the regular roofline of the terrace.
