Appraisal
This house retains its characteristic vernacular form and massing, as identified by features such as its long, low form, steeply pitched roof and windbreak. The irregular window fenestration enhance the façade and character of the house. Prominently sited perpendiculer to the road, it provides a positive and interesting contribution to the roadscape.
