This classically proportioned house retains a strong sense of its original character, displaying a notable patina of age. Its symmetrical front elevation is enlivened by the well executed limestone doorcase and columns. The symmetry of the rear projections is notable and rare. The retention of the original sash windows and the early door further enlivens the elevations.
