Description
Prima Donna is a house that now functions as both a house and a shop. It was built in the early 19th century, with some alterations made in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of brick, which is colourwashed on the front, and features a pantile roof. It has a stone plinth and rebated eaves. The windows are glazing bar sashes, and the building stands three storeys tall with a single window range. The front facade has a central window on each floor, with the upper window being smaller. There is a simple full-width 19th-century shopfront that includes a door on the left with margin light glazing and a 20th-century window on the right. Inside, the front room features a chamfered span beam with stops.
