This modestly scaled house is an interesting feature of the streetscape. Unusual render window surrounds with decorative interlacing to the keystones and a dentilated cornice to the eaves, greatly enhance the visual appeal of this building. Although with a modern shopfront, traces of the historic render shopfront survives and aids in maintaining the building's essential historic character.
