Unusual house built as part of a terrace, displaying both Tudor and Classical motifs. The gable and bay window are typical of the Tudor revival style, whereas the fenestration rhythm and Diocletian window are characteristic Classical features. The house also has a basement, which became an increasingly rare architectural feature in the Victorian era.
