Terraced three-bay two-storey with dormer attic house, built c.1840. Recent glazed porch to front (north-east). Pitched slate roof having rendered chimneystack and eaves course. Cast-iron and uPVC rainwater goods and recent rooflights. Rendered walls having render sill course to first floor. Square-headed window openings having stone sills, moulded render surrounds and uPVC casement windows. Round-headed door opening having engaged Doric columns surmounted by cornice and archivolt. Timber panelled door with brass door furniture and spoked fanlight. Lined-and-ruled rendered enclosing wall having rendered coping with cast-iron railings, moulded rendered gate piers and capping. Cast-iron pedestrian gate and limestone steps.

Part of a terrace of fine houses overlooking the seafront, this house is an integral component of a group which was built in the mid nineteenth century when seaside living outside the city was growing in popularity. The building retains much of its original form and character and its facade is greatly enlivened by the retention of historic features such as the handsome round-headed doorcase and moulded render detailing.
