Appraisal
This building retains notable features, such as the decorative render details and window surrounds, which add interest to the symmetrical façade. Retention of the simple render shopfront, which spans four-bays further enhances the façade. The house presents a unified and coherent decorative scheme and as such makes a positive contribution to the streetscape.
