An appealing house of balanced proportions, symmetrical appearance, and reserved detailing, which has been extensively renovated leading to the loss of much of the original fabric, although some replacement fittings installed in keeping with the original integrity of the design. The retention of early salient features and fittings to the interior is of particular importance, highlighting the historic character of the site.
