Description
65-69 Dalbalir Road is an early 20th-century tenement building that stands three stories tall and has five bays arranged in a 2-1-2 grouping. It is part of a terrace and is constructed from polished red ashlar. The building features a base course, a cornice at the ground floor, and a moulded band course between the first and second floors. A curved moulded deep parapet frieze adds to its architectural detail, along with canted oriel windows located in the outer bays on the first and second floors. The central wallhead stack is strip-moulded.
On the south (entrance) elevation, there are three square-headed entrances at ground level. The outer entrances have two-leaf timber doors, while the central entrance has a single timber door flanked by side-lights. A protruding cornice separates the letterbox fanlights above the doors. The outer bays feature bipartite windows, and there are single windows in the penultimate bays on the outer right and left, with canted windows in the outer bays.
The building predominantly has plate glass timber sash and case windows, although some modern glazing has been installed. The roof is not visible but includes corniced wallhead and gablehead stacks with circular cans. The interior was not seen in 1998.
