Appraisal
A pleasant middle-size house contributing to the diversity of the street scene on account of distinctive attributes including the gabled dormer attic windows introducing incident to the roofline. Although now apparently long disused the survival of the original composition qualities to the upper floors together with much of the early fabric both to the exterior and to the interior maintains the position of the site as an important element contributing to the streetscape value of Logan's Street: however, alteration works carried out on the ground floor have not had a pleasant impact on the external expression of the site at street level.
