Description

10-14 Murray Street in Montrose is a two-storey and attic tenement building, designed by John Sim and dated 1902. It features a rectangular plan and includes shops on the ground floor, forming part of an irregular terrace. The facade exhibits a 'Free Style' design with three crow-stepped gables and is finished in cement render, painted at the ground level. A continuous corniced fascia runs along the top, with a course of foliate carving on the pillars that separate the shop fronts.

The principal elevation is four bays wide, with the ground floor divided by pairs of pilasters topped with corniced capitals. On the right side, there is a shop front, while the central section has a recessed door flanked by display windows, all featuring low stall risers and plate glass. To the left, there is another doorway with a rectangular fanlight above and a six-panel door, also flanked by pilasters. The left shop front includes a display window on the right, a low stall riser, and a recessed doorway on the left. A pend entrance is located to the far left. The first floor is symmetrical, showcasing ogee-headed panelwork mouldings at the center and Art Nouveau influenced mouldings around the stone-mullioned tripartite windows in the outer bays, which feature animal heads in circular panels. There are two windows flanking a blank panel at the center, with a window above that has a round-arch moulding and an ogee hoodmould beneath the nepus gable. Two blank panels are on either side.

The west elevation is asymmetrical, with a central bay that includes a door and window at ground level, and two windows providing stained glass lighting for the staircase and first and attic storeys. This bay rises to a tympany gable. There is a blocked window to the right and a pend entrance at the far right. A blocked opening is present to the left at ground level, with three windows on the first floor. There are two later bipartite dormers on the left and one on the right.

The north elevation adjoins 2-8 Murray Street, while the south elevation adjoins 16 Murray Street. The building features timber sash and case windows, plate glass, and a grey slate pitched roof, with rendered gablehead stacks.
