Double storey cottage in the Karoo-style with sloping roof under modern corrugated iron. It faces both Montagu Street and High Street with entrances in both. The house has an elegant verandah, the sea side with ornamental cast iron pillars under old corrugated iron which retains most of its original woodwork. There are two 6 X 6 small panel sliding sashes in the upper storey. The front door is Edwardian and retains some of its coloured glass. There are two unfortunate modern garages on Montagu Street, but a part of the old wall remains. One of the few remaining Karoo-style houses in Mossel Bay. Important element in the street because of its siti. This is a fine house which should be protected in the Town Planning Scheme and investigated for proclamation
