Appraisal
This house forms part of a prominently sited terrace with four other structures, which together provide an interesting and pleasingly intact feature on the streetscape. The façade is enhanced by features typical of Victorian houses, such as the shouldered openings, canted-bay window, dormer window and label-moulding. Its façade is enhanced by the retention of features such as the timber sliding sash windows and timber panelled door. The boundary walls and railings and pedestrian entrance add context to the site.
