house

Terraced two-bay four-storey over basement red brick house, built c. 1830, forming the end-of- terrace to five similarly scaled and unified houses and now in residential use. House is distinguished by a segmental-arched door opening. Multiple-bay two-storey return to rear. Roof concealed behind a parapet wall to front and rear with chimneystacks evident to both party walls. Painted rendered basement elevation with painted smooth ashlar limestone plinth course delineating ground floor level. Red brick façade laid in Flemish bond with cement repointing, limestone coping to parapet wall. Square-headed window openings with red brick arches, patent rendered reveals, painted limestone sills and early twentieth-century timber sash windows comprising one-over-one sashes to ground and first floor level, and original six-over-one sashes at second floor level (lower sash possibly having glazing bars removed), one six-over-three timber sash window and a replacement uPVC casement window at third floor level. Segmental-arched door opening with red brick arch, rendered reveals, with inset doorcase standing on limestone base incorporating threshold step, comprising three-quarters engaged Composite columns with fluted lintel frieze and shallow cornice having radiating fanlight above; raised and fielded panelled timber door leaf with brass door furniture. Painted limestone plinth wall supporting original wrought-iron railings with cast-iron rail posts having pineapple finials. Red brick faced coach house distinguished by a segmental-arched carriage arch with panelled tympanum and metal gate giving access to interior. Boarded-up loft window.

This house forms the easternmost house within a terrace of similarly scaled houses. It retains much architectural interest including timber sash windows, doorcase and door furniture, railings, plinth wall and the coach house to rear. The scale of the houses in this terrace is diminutive when compared with those on O'Connell Street, and shows the urban hierarchy in the layout of streets within Newtown Pery.
