Terraced two-bay two-storey red brick house built c. 1900, with two-storey return. Pitched artificial slate roof with a shared red brick chimneystack with terracotta pots to the east. uPVC gutter on dentilated red brick eaves with cast-iron downpipe. Red brick walls laid in English garden wall bond with a decorative moulded stringcourse at first floor level, an angled brick course above ground floor level and a chamfered brick course at ground level. Brick camber-arched window openings at first floor level with limestone sills and one-over-one timber sash windows. Shallow projecting bay to ground floor, with a pair of brick camber-arched window openings with bowtel surround, double limestone sill and one-over-one timber sash windows and cylinder glass. Brick round-arched door opening with brick moulding and bowtell surround, with timber-panelled door set back having brass furniture and overlight above. Front garden enclosed by painted rendered wall with decorative cast-iron railings and two piers with wrought-iron gate having circle design.

A well-maintained red brick house of modest scale, forming part of a terrace of nine houses in a quiet cul-de-sac. An identical terrace is situated opposite. This house retains most of the external features, and along with the remainder of the terrace, is a good example of early suburban housing from the turn of the century.
