architecture
It is a broad plastered building of two floors with a loft . Asymmetrical facade structure with emphasis on a wall section by means of a bay window and triangular gable .
In addition to the plinth, floor and roof cornices, the horizontal emphasis is taken on by the imitation cuboid on the ground floor and the console-supported balcony or the parapet of the bay on the upper floor. The laterally framing pilaster strips of the gable axis indicate a vertical emphasis .
The house is accessed via the entrance on the right with a rooflight that looks like a cornice . Following the unequal axis formation , the windows open the façade at rhythmic intervals, whereby they differ in shape and form on each floor. The two left-hand windows on the ground floor are covered in a stitch arch ; The broader window flanking on the right is arched. All windows on the upper floor (three individual and five bay openings) are designed as vertical rectangles with a straight lintel; The openings of the bay window are narrower or lower (on the side).
On the left in the attic there is a row of four uniform vertical rectangles connected by a common sill; on the right and in the gable axis by analogy two further openings. The gable windows are accented with shutters . A slate mansard roof completes the building. The overall restrained use of stucco ornamentation is essentially limited to a flat entrance frame , parapet decorations in the balcony and bay window, lintel decor (upper floor) and a tendril cartouche in the gable field.
