Appraisal
This decoration to this house is particularly striking with a combination of simple features uniting to form a striking façade. The fine door surround is well-executed and is an unique type within the streetscape. Though altered and having lost original fabric, this house remains an intrinsic part of the streetscape of Seatown Place.
