House on a curved corner site. Early 19th century. Painted render, hipped slate roof with stack to east, left end. Three-unit plan. Exterior: three storeys; two-window range. The doorcase to the right-of-centre six-panel door has reeded pilasters, simple caps, a moulded cornice to the entablature over a shallow overlight with margin panes and a horizontal diamond-shaped pane to the centre. Six/six-pane sash window in a moulded forward frame to the right below a canted first and second-floor bay with similar windows and flanking four/four-pane sashes. The wall above the door is blank to the first floor; to the second floor it is jettied out from the curved front to merge with the right-hand range. Twentieth century sashes to the far left of the door with an original eight/eight-pane sash to the ground floor. Between the far left-hand windows and the door the wall is blank. The left return is blank, the rear has late 19th century horned two/two-pane sashes and 20th century windows. Interiior: not inspected but said to retain some original features. Facade distinguished by its upper-floor bays, an unusual feature in Teignmouth but common in other coastal towns of the early 19th century such as Weymouth.
