Appraisal
This house was built as part of a terrace of three. The regular form and scale of the buildings contribute positively to the streetscape. The retention of original features such as the timber sash windows enhance the façade of this building. A notable feature is the simple, but ornate, door surround with pilasters and console brackets. The decorative fanlight above compliments the overall appearance of the door surround, while the stone steps and tooled stone plinth wall add textural variation.
