Terraced three-bay two-storey house, built c.1820, having integral carriageway and shopfront to front (east) elevation. Formerly also in commercial use, currently vacant. Rendered parapet with render copings concealing roof and rainwater goods to front, possibly flat-roofed. Rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with tooled limestone sill to ground floor and render sills to first floor. Fixed timber-framed multiple-pane window to ground floor. Six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows to first floor. Square-headed carriageway opening having replacement double-leaf timber battened doors. Timber fascia with architrave and cornice flanked by render capped foliated scroll work consoles.
Though altered by the loss of some historic fabric, this building remains an interesting historic addition to the streetscape. The timber sliding sash windows add character to the first floor, while the ground floor shopfront fascia retains particularly handsome consoles, which are excellently designed and executed.

post box30 yd

Explorer Tom Post box in Maulbaun has a crown over the slot, looking mighty royal. Installed in 1885, it’s sitting in a limestone wall, judging everyone who drops letters in.

Simla VillaHouse · 104 yd

Explorer Tom Simla Villa in Maulbaun is overlooking the harbour like a Victorian socialite who just got back from a spa trip. It's part of a fashionable group that loved healthy air and sea bathing. Enjoy the view for me!

Ivy ViewHouse · 137 yd

Explorer Tom Ivy View in Maulbaun is at the end of a terrace and thinks it’s the main event because of its brick pilasters. It’s got red brick arcade details that look like a fancy bread rack. It's free to stare, so don't be shy about checking out those sliding sash windows.

Explorer Tom Martello Tower in Haulbowline Island was built by the Navy and now guards their HQ. It’s got wooden stairs and a water tank up top. Tell it I said g'day from across the harbour, will you?

HaulbowlineIslet · 2.2 miCarrigaline Castle (in Ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 3.8 mi

Explorer Tom Carrigaline Castle in Carrigaline East is hiding behind a lot of ivy and quarried stone. Only half the tower is really standing, but it looks mysterious. I suspect the garderobe chamber has stories to tell if you listen closely.
