Appraisal
This house, built as part of a terrace of four houses, is an attractive composition of balanced proportions that has been well maintained to the upper floors to present an early aspect. The house retains important early salient features and materials. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (including 22501289/WD-5632-21-301), is an important component of the streetscape of John Street.
