Round-headed opening to rear having margin one-over-one pane timber sliding sash window with coloured glass to margins. Round-headed opening to west gable having overlight and timber panelled door.

Built as a pair, this fine house is enhanced by the fenestration rhythm, sash window and cast-iron ridge crestings. The bay window is a characteristic Victorian feature which allows more light to penetrate the house and takes advantage of the views to the south.
