house

Terraced three-bay two-storey house, extant 1894. One of a pair. Pitched slate roof with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack having "Cavetto"-detailed stepped capping supporting terracotta or yellow terracotta pots, moss-covered coping to gable, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves retaining cast-iron downpipe. Roughcast battered walls with rendered strips to ends. Square-headed window openings with concrete sills[?], and rendered surrounds framing one-over-one timber sash windows having part exposed sash boxes. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.

A house erected as one of a pair (including 31216007) representing an interesting component of the nineteenth-century urban vernacular heritage of Cong. Having been well maintained, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the historic or original fabric, thus upholding the character or integrity of a house forming part of a neat self-contained ensemble making a pleasing visual statement in the streetscape.
