Description
84 Constitution Street is an early 19th century town house with a small warehouse at the rear, built by George Simpson in 1894. The building is three stories high with an attic and features a three-bay façade. It is constructed from cream sandstone, with a polished ashlar ground floor that is in poor condition, stugged ashlar above, and coursed rubble with droved dressings on the rear and sides.
The front elevation has a columned doorpiece in the left bay, which includes a frieze, cornice, and blocking course, along with a panelled door and an original fanlight featuring radial astragals. The windows on the ground floor are architraved, and there is a band course above the ground floor, a moulded cill course on the first floor, and a dentilled eaves cornice with a blocking course. The fenestration is regular, although the second floor is blinded in the center. A canted dormer with a piended roof is located in the center.
On the rear elevation, there are single windows that are barred at the ground floor, and a single-storey piend-roofed outhouse is situated to the left.
The north and south elevations are adjoining neighboring buildings, both gabled with coped apex stacks.
The warehouse is a two-storey, four-bay structure made of squared and snecked stugged rubble. It features a large opening at the ground floor with sliding timber doors and a doorway at the first floor that has a triangular dormer head and a timber hoist.
The building includes timber sash and case windows with 12-pane and plate glass glazing, a slate roof with lead flashings, and two apex stacks.
The front of the property is bordered by a low boundary wall with curved coping and later railings.
