Appraisal
An attractive small-scale composition of regular, balanced proportions that, despite renovation works in the late twentieth century that have led to the loss of most of the original fabric, retains much of its original form and massing. The addition of a gabled half-dormer attic window in the late nineteenth century has produced a distinctive visual effect that identifies the house in the terrace. The house remains an attractive feature on the streetscape of Annestown, and contributes to the visual appeal of the locality.
