Appraisal

This house is an attractive, modest-scale building that is distinguished by the fine rendered detailing to the openings. The house retains its original form, although the replacement fittings to the openings do not enhance the external appearance of the composition. The house is an important component of the streetscape and contributes to the historic quality of Shortcourse.
