Appraisal
An appealing house built as part of a group of three identical units (with 12000081/KK-4766-09-81) forming an assemblage of modest appearance in the streetscape. Despite renovation works in the late twentieth century that have led to the loss of some of the original fabric the house continues to present an early aspect in the street: a pleasant shopfront probably incorporating the fabric of an earlier counterpart enlivens the artistic design value of the composition at street level.
