Residence - Physical Description 1
The single storey brick building has a front elevation which is now rendered and the gable roofs are clad in corrugated cement sheet. The double gable roof traverses the site and the front elevation is symmetrical. There is a central front door with a double-hung window on either side. Above the door is a rectangular window light. An interesting feature of this house is the short chimneys at each end of the gables. The gable ends at the west end of the house are built of red-blue bricks and show no sign of the chimneys until they are above the roof line.
