Appraisal
This building forms part of a terrace with a number of similarly sized and proportioned structures, making a positive contribution to the rhythmic streetscape. Decorative interest is added to the façade by the label mouldings and window surrounds, the symmetry of the façade is enhanced by the retention of timber sash windows. The shopfront to the ground floor adds artistic interest and context to the site, which is no longer in commercial use. It is well crafted and provides a pleasing feature on the streetscape.
