Appraisal
This house forms an interesting pair with its neighbour to the south, forming a mirror image. The unusual massing of forms and the decorative crenellations give this pair of houses a castle-like appearance, which provides visual interest to this twentieth-century streetscape. It retains original features such as its timber sash windows.
