This house is attached to a terrace of similarly designed houses on Seatown Place. The house is typical of buildings of this period with limestone detailing enlivening the predominantly red brick façade. The retention of many original features and materials is worthy of note and adds character to this modest house. The decorative cast-iron railings along with the terracotta detailing to the dormer heighten the structure's architectural charm.
