One of three similar double fronted houses, single storey to the street but with a two storey section at the rear.
The builder of the house and its first owner was Thomas Murray. The house was initially built with six rooms but by 1888 had increased to eight rooms. Murray owned the house until his death in 1892. According to the Inventory of Assets in the probate papers, as well as the eight rooms the house had a bathroom, pantry and outhouses and was let at £6.10.0 per month.
