Replacement uPVC windows to gables and to rear extension, with raised render surrounds and concrete sills. Segmental-headed door opening to front with timber panelled door having sidelights with panelled stall risers and spoked fanlight.

Appraisal
This pleasant house is simply articulated by vertical plat bands to a well balanced font elevation. The building is enhanced by the retention of original sash windows to the front and the imposing doorcase. The house and outbuildings are attractively sited in mature grounds.
